Formation and arrest of a surface density front via strain-driven frontogenesis

Ocean fronts play a key role in the vertical transport of heat, energy and biogeochemical tracers, but their behaviour and life cycle is not well-understood, especially at smaller scales. We present a large-eddy simulation of mixed layer frontogenesis
