Abstract

Stirring a stably stratified fluid can lead to the formation of a system of well-mixed layers separated by sharp interfaces. We present a one-dimensional mixing-length model for layering, and investigate trends in the solutions to late times. Over time, layers drift and merge together on an inverse logarithmic timescale.
