“…Higher mixing efficiencies occur in stratified flows with the presence of turbulent convection. Mixing efficiencies of 0.75 in the case of Rayleigh‐Taylor instability (Davies Wykes & Dalziel, ), 0.5 in the case of Rayleigh‐Bénard convection (Gayen, Hughes, & Griffiths, ; Hughes et al, ), 0.6 in the case of convectively driven instability due to internal waves (Chalamalla & Sarkar, ), and approaching 1 in the case of horizontal convection (Gayen, Griffiths, et al, ; Gayen et al, ; Vreugdenhil et al, ) have been found. In addition, the presence of rough topography could enhance mixing efficiency in the abyssal ocean (Mashayek et al, ).…”
