However, this discrepancy is not as large in boundary layers, especially in the mixedlayer at the top of the ocean.
A loss of resolution is especially pronounced in the mixedlayer at the upper boundary of the ocean, as this layer is vertically homogeneous.
The thickness of the mixedlayer is typically on the order of tens of metres to perhaps hundreds of metres.
Their possible explanation at that time invoked the export of energy from the mixedlayer to internal gravity waves in the stable outer layer in the latter case.
There is thus considerable incentive to explore the entrainment zone, since existing knowledge of its thickness and structure a t the edge of a convectively mixedlayer is very scanty.
However, it is gradually swept back into the mixedlayer by the entrainment process, which must be aided by residual negative buoyancy which the detrained fluid possesses.
The detrained fluid remains visible for considerable periods of time because of reduced turbulent diffusion after being cut off from the rest of the mixedlayer.
After thermal convection is initiated the lower neutral layer quickly becomes a turbulent mixed layer and then advances gradually into the outer stable layer or less dense layer.
Kaolinite is more abundant in samples to the southeast of the section where it is associated with irregular mixedlayer illite/smectite.
Net photosynthesis in the water column is determined by the interaction between the photic zone and the mixedlayer.
