mixed layer

The study showed that the mixed layer at the surface forms in autumn.

The mixed layer plays an important role in the physical climate.

However, it becomes zero at the base of the mixed layer.

Mixed layer clay variations exist for most of the above groups.

Mixed layer clay minerals which are perfect R1 types often get their own names.

Below this mixed layer, the temperature remains relatively stable over day/night cycles.

The depth of the atmospheric mixed layer is known as the mixing height.

The mixed layer is also important as its depth determines the average level of light seen by marine organisms.

The surface part of the ocean, also called the mixed layer, is not much colder even when we go deeper down.

The bottom of the mixed layer is characterized by a gradient, where the water properties change.

This is because heat is withdrawn from the ocean mixed layer in a number of ways.

Turbulence typically plays a role in the formation of fluid mixed layers.

Velocities, however, may exhibit significant shears within the mixed layer.

The deeper the mixed layer, the lower the average amount of light intercepted by phytoplankton within it.

Several papers have appeared recently that suggest a different relationship between the mixed layer depth and spring bloom timing.

The thermostad is the deep mixed layer that has discrete boundaries and uniform temperature.

The atmospheric mixed layer is a zone having nearly constant potential temperature and specific humidity with height.

There are three primary sources of energy for driving turbulent mixing within the open-ocean mixed layer.

Neither criterion implies that active mixing is occurring to the mixed layer depth at all times.

These are the reasons that the depth of the ocean mixed layer is more important in hurricane deepening than sea surface temperature.

Turbulence is high in the mixed layer.

Turbulence again increases below the base of the mixed layer due to shear instabilities.

The mixed layer depth is in fact greater in winter than summer in each hemisphere.

Below the mixed layer, cell concentrations rapidly decline.

When the mixed layer deepens again in the following autumn/early winter the anomalies may influence again the surface.
