“…However, it is likely that such discrepancy also stems from the inability of Argo float and CTD data to capture turbulent processes in proximity to ocean boundaries and the lack of representation of all boundary processes in the tidally driven mixing estimate employed here. Among such near boundary turbulence hot spots are narrow passages between basins and deep trenches (M. Alford et al., 2013; Van Haren, 2018; Van Haren et al., 2017; Voet et al., 2015), continental slopes (J. D. Nash et al., 2004; J. Nash et al., 2007), mid‐ocean ridges (St Laurent et al., 2001; Thurnherr & St. Laurent, 2011), seamounts (Kunze & Toole, 1997; Lueck & Mudge, 1997; Mashayek, Gula, et al., 2021; Toole et al., 1997) and canyons (Carter & Gregg, 2002; Kunze et al., 2012).…”
