- W2914188319 abstract "Abstract Double‐diffusive stratification in the ocean is characterized by staircase structures consisting of mixed layers separated by high‐gradient interfaces in temperature and salinity. These double‐diffusive layers, which flux heat vertically, are observed over a vast region of the Arctic Ocean at the top boundary of the relatively warm and salty Atlantic water layer. In one formalism for the origin of double‐diffusive layers, staircase formation arises when a heat source is applied at the base of water that is stably stratified in salinity. This framework is extended to consider the effect of intermittent shear‐driven turbulence on diffusive‐convective staircase formation. One‐dimensional numerical model results indicate that there is a critical level of intermittent turbulence above which a staircase cannot form. This is framed in terms of a critical diffusivity ratio (ratio of effective salinity diffusivity to effective thermal diffusivity) that cannot be exceeded for a staircase to persist. This critical ratio is not a universal constant but rather differs for each staircase. Model results further indicate that layer thicknesses decrease with height in a staircase, with the variation in thickness over a staircase being more pronounced in the presence of intermittent turbulence. Finally, results suggest that increased diffusivity ratios lead to decreased heat fluxes across interfaces; if a staircase is subject to intermittent turbulence levels (below the critical level), vertical heat fluxes will be smaller than in the absence of shear‐driven turbulence. Findings are related to double‐diffusive staircases, and associated heat fluxes, in the weakly turbulent Arctic Ocean." @default.
