It was used to examine the effects of the turbulence response of the simulation of vertical mixing in the water column structure in the Southern Ocean (SO), using the available scattered data as comparison. The Brunt Väisälä frequency, turbulent diffusivity and turbocline provided valuable information regarding the turbulence response of the water column and the effect of an entrapped warm water parcel below cool waters was observed.enNEMOSub-Mesoscale ParameterizationsTurbulence SchemeVertical mixingSouthern OceanInvestigating the turbulence response of a 1-D idealized water column located in the sub-Antarctic zone with focus on the upper ocean dynamicsConference PresentationBoodhraj, K., Vichi, M., & Smit, J.
