Consider now the phase-averaged potential energy anoma- lies at the end of the first year, shown in Table I. Suppose the initial mixed layer depth is 75 m and the initial temperature jump is 4°c. The net reduction of potential energy for the one-year period interior motion would then te equivalent tea reduced mixed layer depth of 50
