Wind-driven mixing below the oceanic mixed layer [PDF]

, 2011
This study describes the turbulent processes in the upper ocean boundary layer forced by a constant surface stress in the absence of the Coriolis force using large-eddy simulation.

Improving the thermocline calculation over the global ocean [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2023
According to the typical thermal structure of the ocean, the water column can be divided into three layers: the mixed layer, the thermocline and the deep layer.

Sustenance of phytoplankton in the subpolar North Atlantic during the winter through patchiness [PDF]

, 2017
This study investigates the influence of two factors that change the mixed layer depth and can potentially contribute to the phytoplankton sustenance over winter: 1) variability of air-sea fluxes and 2) three-dimensional processes arising from strong ...

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

Ilmu 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 ...

Verification of the mixed layer depth in the OceanMAPS operational forecast model for Austral autumn [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development, 2018
The ocean mixed layer depth is an important parameter describing the exchange of fluxes between the atmosphere and ocean. In ocean modelling a key factor in the accurate representation of the mixed layer is the parameterization of vertical mixing.

Langmuir turbulence and surface heating in the ocean surface boundary layer [PDF]

, 2015
This study uses large-eddy simulation to investigate the structure of the ocean surface boundary layer (OSBL) in the presence of Langmuir turbulence and stabilizing surface heat fluxes.

Surface buoyancy flux in Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2008
The seasonal variation of thermal, haline, net surface buoyancy flux, the Monin-Obukhov length (M-O length, L) and stability parameter, i.e. the ratio of M-O length to mixed layer depth (h) were studied in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) and the Arabian Sea ...

Cloud and boundary layer interactions over the Arctic sea ice in late summer [PDF]

, 2013
Observations from the Arctic Summer Cloud Ocean Study (ASCOS), in the central Arctic sea-ice pack in late summer 2008, provide a detailed view of cloud- atmosphere-surface interactions and vertical mixing processes over the sea-ice environment ...

Physicochemical controls on the initiation of phytoplankton bloom during the winter monsoon in the Arabian Sea

Scientific Reports, 2021
Occurrence of phytoplankton bloom in the northern Arabian Sea (NAS) during the winter monsoon is perplexing. The convective mixing leads to a deeper and well-oxygenated (> 95% saturation) mixed layer.

The response of the upper ocean to solar heating. I: The mixed layer [PDF]

, 1986
The results of two earlier papers on convection in the mixed layer and on the solar heating profile are here introduced into a one-dimensional model in order to investigate the following consequences of the daily cycle of solar heating in the upper ocean:
