Mixed Layer Deepening

Mixed Layer Deepening is a physical oceanographic process characterized by the downward extension of the upper ocean's well-mixed layer due to enhanced vertical mixing, convective instabilities, or wind-driven turbulence, resulting in the entrainment of denser water from the underlying pycnocline.
