Using next generation ocean observations and machine learning to transform mixed layer depth predictions

The Mixed Layer Depth (MLD) governs ocean-atmosphere exchanges, vertical mixing and ocean dynamics. Ocean models can simulate high-frequency MLD dynamics—such as realistic storm mixing—they often fail to resolve them temporally, which means they cannot be used directly to resolve or predict day-to-day changes.
