Nonlinearly interacting entrainment due to shear and convection in the surface ocean

Large-eddy simulations were performed to investigate the entrainment buoyancy flux at the mixed layer base due to nonlinearly interacting shear-driven turbulence (ST) and convective turbulence (CT). The fluxes due to pure ST and pure CT were first evaluated, and their scalings were derived. The entr...
