Turbulent mixing, restratification, and phytoplankton growth at a submesoscale eddy

Abstract High‐resolution large‐eddy simulations are used to study the influence of submesoscale mixed layer instability and small‐scale turbulence on phytoplankton growth in light‐limited conditions. Four simulations are considered with small‐scale turbulence driven by varying levels of surface cool...
