Mixing By Double Diffusion

Mixing By Double Diffusion is a physical oceanographic process denoting the vertical transport of heat and salt in stratified fluids, where the differential molecular diffusion rates of temperature and salinity generate localized instabilities that drive turbulent mixing, distinct from mechanical or convective mechanisms.
