  1. Ocean Mixing Experiment Tommi Bergman, Ambarish Karmalkar, Shreethala C., Abubakr Salih

  2. Modifications • Vertical mixing coefficients (ABACK and DBACK) increased by factor of 25 • No other modifications

  3. Hypotheses • Increased vertical mixing • Mixed layer thickness increase • SST and SAT decrease • Build-up of sea ice at high latitudes • Salinity profile change

  4. Mixed layer thickness • Mixed layer thickens • Some anomalies especially around Antarctica

  5. Sea temperature • Equatorial surface layer cools • At larger depths water temperature increases

  6. SAT Control • Global temp reduces, but polar temp increases

  7. Sea ice

  8. Salinity vertical profile Salinity increases at poles, especially north pole

  9. Ocean circulation • Compared to the control run the poleward mass transport increases m3s-1 Time

  10. CO2 response • CO2 burden has a increasing trend all through the 20 years
