Structure and dynamics of the thermohaline staircases in the Beaufort Gyre
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === This study explores the dynamics of diffusive convection which occurs when cold, fresh water overlies warm and salty. The primary convective regime in the Arctic region is characterized by the spontaneous formation of well mixed layers sep...
