     993\label{ZDF_bfr_loglayer} 
     994 
     995In the non-linear bottom friction case, the drag coefficient, $C_D$, can be optionally 
     996enhanced using a "law of the wall" scaling. If  \np{ln\_loglayer} = .true., $C_D$ is no 
     997longer constant but is related to the thickness of the last wet layer in each column by: 
     998 
     999\begin{equation} 
     1000C_D = \left ( {\kappa \over {\rm log}\left ( 0.5e_{3t}/rn\_bfrz0 \right ) } \right )^2 
     1001\end{equation} 
     1002 
     1003\noindent where $\kappa$ is the von-Karman constant and \np{rn\_bfrz0} is a roughness 
     1004length provided via the namelist. 
     1005 
     1006For stability, the drag coefficient is bounded such that it is kept greater or equal to 
     1007the base \np{rn\_bfri2} value and it is not allowed to exceed the value of an additional 
     1008namelist parameter: \np{rn\_bfri2\_max}, i.e.: 
     1009 
     1010\begin{equation} 
     1011rn\_bfri2 \leq C_D \leq rn\_bfri2\_max 
     1012\end{equation} 
     1013 
     1014\noindent Note also that a log-layer enhancement can also be applied to the top boundary 
     1015friction if under ice-shelf cavities are in use (\np{ln\_isfcav}=.true.).  In this case, the 
     1016relevant namelist parameters are \np{rn\_tfrz0}, \np{rn\_tfri2} 
     1017and \np{rn\_tfri2\_max}.

     1310The parameterization of mixing induced by breaking internal waves is a generalization  
     1311of the approach originally proposed by \citet{St_Laurent_al_GRL02}.  
     1312A three-dimensional field of internal wave energy dissipation $\epsilon(x,y,z)$ is first constructed,  
     1313and the resulting diffusivity is obtained as  
     1314\begin{equation} \label{Eq_Kwave} 
     1315A^{vT}_{wave} =  R_f \,\frac{ \epsilon }{ \rho \, N^2 } 
     1316\end{equation} 
     1317where $R_f$ is the mixing efficiency and $\epsilon$ is a specified three dimensional distribution  
     1318of the energy available for mixing. If the \np{ln\_mevar} namelist parameter is set to false,  
     1319the mixing efficiency is taken as constant and equal to 1/6 \citep{Osborn_JPO80}.  
     1320In the opposite (recommended) case, $R_f$ is instead a function of the turbulence intensity parameter  
     1321$Re_b = \frac{ \epsilon}{\nu \, N^2}$, with $\nu$ the molecular viscosity of seawater,  
     1322following the model of \cite{Bouffard_Boegman_DAO2013}  
     1323and the implementation of \cite{de_lavergne_JPO2016_efficiency}. 
     1324Note that $A^{vT}_{wave}$ is bounded by $10^{-2}\,m^2/s$, a limit that is often reached when the mixing efficiency is constant. 
     1325 
     1326In addition to the mixing efficiency, the ratio of salt to heat diffusivities can chosen to vary  
     1327as a function of $Re_b$ by setting the \np{ln\_tsdiff} parameter to true, a recommended choice).  
     1328This parameterization of differential mixing, due to \cite{Jackson_Rehmann_JPO2014},  
     1329is implemented as in \cite{de_lavergne_JPO2016_efficiency}. 
     1330 
     1331The three-dimensional distribution of the energy available for mixing, $\epsilon(i,j,k)$, is constructed  
     1332from three static maps of column-integrated internal wave energy dissipation, $E_{cri}(i,j)$,  
     1333$E_{pyc}(i,j)$, and $E_{bot}(i,j)$, combined to three corresponding vertical structures  
     1334(de Lavergne et al., in prep): 
     1335\begin{align*} 
     1336F_{cri}(i,j,k) &\propto e^{-h_{ab} / h_{cri} }\\ 
     1337F_{pyc}(i,j,k) &\propto N^{n\_p}\\ 
     1338F_{bot}(i,j,k) &\propto N^2 \, e^{- h_{wkb} / h_{bot} } 
     1339\end{align*}  
     1340In the above formula, $h_{ab}$ denotes the height above bottom,  
     1341$h_{wkb}$ denotes the WKB-stretched height above bottom, defined by 
     1342\begin{equation*} 
     1343h_{wkb} = H \, \frac{ \int_{-H}^{z} N \, dz' } { \int_{-H}^{\eta} N \, dz'  } \; , 
     1344\end{equation*} 
     1345The $n_p$ parameter (given by \np{nn\_zpyc} in \ngn{namzdf\_tmx\_new} namelist)  controls the stratification-dependence of the pycnocline-intensified dissipation.  
     1346It can take values of 1 (recommended) or 2. 
     1347Finally, the vertical structures $F_{cri}$ and $F_{bot}$ require the specification of  
     1348the decay scales $h_{cri}(i,j)$ and $h_{bot}(i,j)$, which are defined by two additional input maps.  
     1349$h_{cri}$ is related to the large-scale topography of the ocean (etopo2)  
     1350and $h_{bot}$ is a function of the energy flux $E_{bot}$, the characteristic horizontal scale of  
     1351the abyssal hill topography \citep{Goff_JGR2010} and the latitude.
