Short summary
This study examines two near-inertial wave events during winter storms using subsurface mooring observations and reanalysis data. Wind energy input during the first storm was about three times that during the second, but the observed near-inertial energy was similar. Eddies and modal contents are important factors. The low modes dominates the first event, while the high modes dominates the second event. These factors together affect the wintertime interior mixing.
