Acoustic mapping of mixed layer depth [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2018
The ocean surface mixed layer is a nearly universal feature of the world oceans. Variations in the depth of the mixed layer (MLD) influences the exchange of heat, fresh water (through evaporation), and gases between the atmosphere and the ocean and ...

Mixed layer depth variability in the Red Sea [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2018
For the first time, a monthly climatology of mixed layer depth (MLD) in the Red Sea has been derived based on temperature profiles. The general pattern of MLD variability is clearly visible in the Red Sea, with deep MLDs during winter and shallow MLDs

Origins of mesoscale mixed-layer depth variability in the Southern Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2023
Mixed-layer depth (MLD) exhibits significant variability, which is important for atmosphere–ocean exchanges of heat and atmospheric gases. The origins of the mesoscale MLD variability in the Southern Ocean are studied here in an idealised regional ocean ...

Characteristics of Mixed Layer Depth and Its Effect on Concentration of Chlorophyll-a (Karakteristik Mixed Layer Depth dan Pengaruhnya Terhadap Konsentrasi Klorofil-a)

open access: yesIlmu Kelautan, 2015
Perairan Selat Badung memiliki karakteristik yang sebagian besar dipengaruhi oleh aktivitas Arus Lintas Indonesia (ARLINDO). Pencampuran massa air akibat pergerakan massa air vertikal menjadikan kondisi lapisan yang homogen, dimana nilai suhu, salinitas ...

Role of Mixed Layer Depth in Kuroshio Extension Decadal Variability

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the Kuroshio Extension (KE) have been suggested to play a crucial role in decadal climate variability of the North Pacific affecting global climate and marine ecosystem variability.

Summertime increases in upper-ocean stratification and mixed-layer depth. [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2021
The surface mixed layer of the world ocean regulates global climate by controlling heat and carbon exchange between the atmosphere and the oceanic interior1-3. The mixed layer also shapes marine ecosystems by hosting most of the ocean's primary production4 and providing the conduit for oxygenation of deep oceanic layers.

Three decades of Mediterranean mixed layer depth change: basin trends and regional contrasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
IntroductionThe mixed layer depth (MLD) regulates air–sea heat fluxes, nutrient entrainment, and ecosystem dynamics in the Mediterranean Sea, making its long-term evolution a sensitive indicator of climate-driven changes in ocean stratification and ...

Ocean Mixed Layer Depth From Dissipation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2022
AbstractThe mixed layer depth (MLD) is a widely used parameter for physical, chemical, and biological oceanography. The MLD delimits that region of the ocean, which is directly influenced by the atmosphere. There is a similar length scale referred to as the mixing layer depth, which is determined from profiles of dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic ...

The bottom mixed layer depth as an indicator of subsurface Chlorophyll a distribution [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2023
Primary production dynamics are strongly associated with vertical density profiles in shelf waters. Variations in the vertical structure of the pycnocline in stratified shelf waters are likely to affect nutrient fluxes and hence the vertical distribution
