Submesoscale dynamics O(1-10 km, hours to days) are considered to strongly affect the stratification of the upper ocean. In the Southern Ocean, studies of submesoscale dynamics are biased to regions preconditioned for strong frontal activity and topographical influence. This dissertation considers the role of submesoscales on the evolution of mixed layer depth and upper ocean stratification in the open-ocean Subantarctic Ocean. First, we present autonomous ocean glider measurements from spring to late-summer to show that transient increases in stratification within the mixed layer during spring result in rapid mixed layer shoaling events. A realistically-forced simulation using a one-dimensional mixed layer model fails to explain these obse...
