“…For the relatively low rates of dissipation found beneath Ronne Ice Shelf (ε < 10 −9 W m −2 ), integrating up to 10 cpm resolved a sufficient portion of the shear variance in 58.1% of spectra, while integrating to
was sufficient in a further 41.7% of cases. Each estimate of ε was then iteratively adjusted using the empirical Nasmyth spectrum to correct for the shear variance found beyond
and at the low‐wavenumber end of the spectrum (Lueck, 2016; Piccolroaz et al.,
2021). Turbulence has a correlation time and length scale, and therefore 88 ε estimates that differed by more than a factor of 4 between shear probes for the same segment, or more than a factor of 10 between neighboring segments, were discarded.…”
