Description: Ocean fronts - sharp horizontal gradients in temperature, salinity, and density - are a key feature of the upper ocean that affect the transport of pollutants and the nature of near surface flows. Fox-Kemper will highlight some of the recent modeling and theoretical undertaken on to understand how fronts, frontal instabilities and turbulence, and surface waves interact. Traditional geophysical boundary layer theory neglects horizontal variations, and so is unable to capture frontal dynamics. Som
