HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Lixin Qu from the Northern Gulf of Mexico have published the research: Rapid vertical exchange at fronts in the Northern Gulf of Mexico, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of June/15,/2010
- what: Using high-resolution ocean observations and numerical simulations, the authors demonstrate how the summer land-sea breeze generates rapid vertical exchange at the plume fronts. The authors show that the interaction between the landsea breeze and the fronts leads to convergence/divergence in the surface mixed layer, which further facilitates a slantwise circulation that subducts surface water along isopycnals into the interior . . .
