A Data-Driven Approach for Parameterizing Submesoscale Vertical Buoyancy Fluxes in the Ocean Mixed Layer

Abigail Bodner, Dhruv Balwada, Laure Zanna

Parameterizations of O(1-10)km submesoscale flows in General Circulation Models (GCMs) represent the effects of unresolved vertical buoyancy fluxes in the ocean mixed layer. These…
