Measurements indicate that mixing processes are intense in the surface layers of the ocean but weak below the thermocline, except for the region below the core of the Equatorial Undercurrent where ver...
The rate of work against the buoyancy forces due to vertical mixing (W) has been determined from repeated measurements of vertical density profiles in a large number of fjordic sill basins (basins dam...

The influence of localized regions of intensified vertical mixing on the stratification and circulation in a large-scale ocean model is investigated with idealized numerical experiments. Numerical sol...
A consistent scheme for vertical mixing in layered numerical models is derived in this paper. The fact that the vertical coordinate (density) depends on the properties being transported (namely salini...
On the Ocean’s Large-Scale Circulation near the Limit of No Vertical Mixing
Large-Scale Circulation No Vertical Mixing Limit
2008/10/27
By convention, the ocean’s large-scale circulation is assumed to be a thermohaline overturning driven by the addition and extraction of buoyancy at the surface and vertical mixing in the interior. Pre...
Vertical Mixing and Transports through a Stratified Shear Layer
Vertical Mixing Transports Stratified Shear Layer
2008/8/7
A stratified shear layer was generated in the laboratory by driving a turbulent mixed layer of depth D over a quiescent, deep dense layer. As a result, a density interface of thickness δb across which...
