Figure 8: (a) Depth of the diurnal mixed layer, defined
by a density increase of
above the surface value. (b) Cumulative turbulent
heat flux across the mixed layer base. (c) Cumulative turbulent salt flux
across the mixed layer base. In
each case, the filled curve is the LES result; the asterisks show the measurements.
Model drift after ~hour 16 signals the need for data assimilation.
