Abstract
The Diapycnal and Isopycnal Mixing Experiment in the
Southern Ocean (DIMES) was designed as a multi-pronged US
and UK CLIVAR effort to measure and to better understand
diapycnal mixing and along-isopycnal eddy transport in
the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), because these
processes together appear to play a key role in the Merdional
Overturning Circulation (MOC) (Gille et al., 2007).
