Internal tides and geostrophic turbulence in a Boussinesq re-entrant channel

This data presents surface outputs from a simulation of the Boussinesq equations of motion on a re-rentrant zonal channel centred around 45ºN. A beam of northward-propagating mode-1 internal tide oscillating with a period of 12 hours interacts with quasi-geostrophic turbulence, created by a baroclinicially unstable jet. We separated the signal into low-frequency (i.e., evolving over two days or longer) and tidal-frequency (harmonic fits) components, in addition to the raw (instantaneous) data. The dataset contains five experiments with increasing turbulence intensities (wp50 to wp90) and split into three 100-day intervals (t1, t2 and t3). It includes sea surface height, sea surface temperature, surface vorticity, and other surface fields.

V2 update (28 May 2021): wp50 was erroneously restored to the same stratification as wp75, which is now fixed. We also included the sin components of the harmonic filterings.
