A parameterization is presented for turbulence dissipation due to internal tides generated at and impinging upon topography steep enough to be ‘‘supercritical’’ with respect to the tide. The parameterization requires knowledge of the topography, stratification, and the remote forcing—either barotropic or baroclinic. Internal modes that are arrested at the crest of the topography are assumed to dissipate, and faster modes assumed to propagate away. The energyflux into each mode is predicted using a knife-edge topography that allows linear numericalsolutions. The parameterizationis tested using high-resolution two-dimensional numerical models of barotropic and internal tides impinging on an isolated ridge, and for the generation problem on a two-ridge system.Therecipeisseentoworkwellcomparedtonumericalsimulationsofisolatedridges,solongastheridge has a slope steeper than twice the critical steepness. For less steeply sloped ridges, near-critical generation becomesmoredominant.Forthetwo-ridgecase,therecipeworkswellwhencomparedtonumericalmodelruns with very thin ridges. However, as the ridges are widened, even by a small amount, the recipe does poorly in an unspecified manner because the linear response at high modes becomes compromised as it interacts with the slopes.
