Boundary mixing confines vertical upwelling and buoyancy transport to the mixing zone, leaving the interior fluid completely stagnant in steady state.
Transient buoyancy flux changes induce a secondary boundary flow and trigger an equal, opposite vertical flow across the unmixed basin interior.
Laboratory experiments and theoretical models clarify how transient boundary mixing alters density stratification during deep ocean ventilation.
