Vertical diffusivity and consumption rate of dissolved oxygen in the thermocline

Geochemical Journal, Vol. 6, No. 2, P. 59-65, 1972

ABSTRACT

On the basis of the vertical distribution of 3H observed at the Geosecs station (1969) in the Northeast Pacific, the vertical eddy diffusivity in the thermocline was evaluated to be O.16cm2/sec. By using this value and dissolved oxygen profile, the consumption rate of oxygen in the thermocline was estimated to be 3.9 × 10-2 ml/kg/y on an average.
