Dear NCL Users,<br>
I'm trying to use the built-in function mixed_layer_depth
(<a href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/mixed_layer_depth.shtml" target="_blank">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/mixed_layer_depth.shtml</a>)
in my code (see .ncl attachment) to compute Water Mass Formation
rate in the Gulf of Lion, but result doesn't convince me (too large
depths!!). <br>
Unfortunately, there's not so much documentation on that function. I
just found some ncl-talk messages in the archive (such as
<a href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Support/talk_archives/2013/3941.html" target="_blank">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Support/talk_archives/2013/3941.html</a>), but
without finding any exhaustive information.<br>
Is there anyone who can address me to the reference papers used to
write that function? What is the physical mechanism?<br>
I'm using NCL 6.2.0 on a system<br>

Thanks a lot.<span><font color="#888888"><br>
