Abstract:
In this article, we present the datasets which are used to estimate the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rates and vertical diffusivity in the Indonesian seas. An archived CTD (conductivity, temperature, depth) datasets collected between 1990 and 2016 with 1 m vertical resolution is presented and analyzed using an improved Thorpe method. The direct estimates dataset of the dissipation rate from two research expeditions, i.e., INDOMIX Program in 2010 and TOMTOM Program in 2015 were also presented, available to be compared with the indirect estimates from CTD profiles. We also present the dissipation rate output of three recent regional internal tide models in the Indonesian seas for comparison with microstructure measurements and improved Thorpe estimates. The datasets refer to "Spatial structure of turbulent mixing inferred from historical CTD datasets in the Indonesian seas" [1].
