Observations of thermal variations in the mixed layer depth of the equatorial Atlantic
2009 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2009A set of Argo temperature data collected in the equatorial Atlantic [0°-5°N, 55°W-10°E] was used to estimate the mixed layer depth (MLD) and associated thermal variability for the period between January 2002 to April 2009. MLD climatology were estimated from 0.3°×0.3° median binned temperature profile using temperature difference criterion with a ...

Marine Technology Society Journal, 2013
AbstractThis study evaluates the ability of the Hawaii Regional Navy Coastal Ocean Model to accurately predict the depth of the surface mixed layer in the lee of the Hawaiian Islands. Accurately modeling the depth of the surface mixed layer in this complex wake island environment is important to naval operations because the area hosts numerous ...

The effect of layer depth on mixing in a double-diffusive two-layer system
International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2002Abstract Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of the layer depth ratio on the mixing process of a two-layer stratified fluid in a laterally heated enclosure. Due to the lateral heating of the enclosure, a circulating convective flow is induced in each layer. The experiments were carried out in a box with inner dimensions of 10×10×

Three‐dimensional analytical model for the mixed layer depth
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1992We have recently developed a three‐dimensional semi‐analytical mixed layer remote sensing model which includes the horizontal advection and diffusion processes in our previous one dimensional model (Yan et al., 1991a). The three‐dimensional (3‐D) model can be used as a supplement to the one‐dimensional (1‐D) model in the area where advection is ...

A simple approach to evaluate mixed layer depths
Environmental Software, 1991In this paper we present a review of the different existing methods to evaluate the mixed layer depth (zi) by using direct and simple meteorological data over a mast. Wind speed at one height in the atmosphere and temperature at two levels are the necessary values for calculating a value of the mixed layer depth.

Effect of climate warming on the mixed layer depth in lakes
2020<p>The surface mixed layer in lakes is where phytoplankton grow and where most of the primary production occurs. Knowledge of the thickness of the mixed layer is essential to estimate for instance primary productivity and to interpret remote sensing measurements, because it determines the mean light supply and indicates how ...

Raman Remote Sensing Of The Ocean Mixed-Layer Depth
Optical Engineering, 1983An oceanographic Raman lidar has been shown to be an effective tool for immediate (early) applications in Navy and National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) programs. Remote sensing of the depth of the ocean mixed layer will be of significant importance both in acoustic propagation prediction and in long range weather and climate ...

Seasonal variability of mixed layer depth in Indonesian Seas
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2015This research is conducted to analyzed seasonal variation of mixed layer depth (MLD) in Indonesian Seas using monthly temperature average data from World Ocean Atlas (WOA) 2009 with the 0.25 degree grid resolution and wind data from NCEP. The results of this study indicate that seasonal variation of MLD are closely related to seasonal monsoonal wind ...

Mixed layer depth variability over the global ocean
Journal of Geophysical Research, 2003The spatial and monthly variability of the climatological mixed layer depth (MLD) for the global ocean is examined using the recently developed Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Ocean Mixed Layer Depth (NMLD) climatologies. The MLD fields are constructed using the subsurface temperature and salinity data from the World Ocean Atlas 1994 [Levitus et al ...
