abstract: |
The investigations are based on two data sets from the Bornholm Basin and include
high-resolution CTD, shear microstructure, and velocity data. A highly turbulent and
strongly stratified bottom boundary layer (BBL) of a few meters thickness develops,
which exhibits high mixing rates and a bulk mixing efficiency that is comparable to
the interior value of 0.2. The BBL turbulence was found to be suppressed within the
halocline in summer, and does therefore not contribute to cross-halocline mixing in
this region.
