Horizontal shear instabilities in low-Froude high-Re stratified flows produce vertical shear through two distinct pathways, each leading to small-scale KH instabilities at large buoyancy Reynolds number but with different peak mixing efficiencies.

Two pathways to diapycnal mixing in strongly stratified flows with no initial vertical shear
Horizontal shear instabilities in low-Froude high-Re stratified flows produce vertical shear through two distinct pathways, each leading to small-scale KH instabilities at large buoyancy Reynolds number but with different peak mixing efficiencies.
