英文摘要	Mixing induced by nonbreaking surface waves was investigated in a wave tank by measuring the thermal destratification rate of the water column. One experiment without waves and four experiments with waves of amplitudes ranging from 1.0 to 1.5 cm and wavelength from 30 to 75 cm were conducted. Water temperature variations at depths from4 to 12 cmbelow the surface weremeasured. In the layer from4 to 7 cm, the originally dense isothermal lines disperse soon after the waves are generated, whereas the vertical gradient from 9 to 12 cm is maintained for a relatively long time. The time span, duringwhich the water temperature becomes well mixed, changes from about 20 h for the case with no waves to tens of minutes for the case with waves, and it decreases with increasing wave amplitude and wavelength. A one-dimensional diffusion numerical model with wave-induced mixing parameterization shows consistent results with themeasurement. The study demonstrates that themixing induced by nonbreakingwaves may add an important contribution to the verticalmixing process in the upper ocean and suggests a way to parameterize wave-induced mixing in numerical ocean models. © 2010 American Meteorological Society.
