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.
