Vertical columnar flows, approximately 5 inches in diameter, called salt fingers, develop and mix water vertically, causing a stair-step salinity and temperature change with depth.

A mixing process known as "salt fingering" takes place when relatively warm, salty water is placed on top of comparatively cold, fresh water. This is an example of double diffusive instability. The fact that warm water diffuses more readily than salty water is what drives it.

The quantity of dissolved salts in water is referred to as salinity. In seawater, sodium and chloride predominate, with significant amounts of magnesium, calcium, and sulphate ions as well.
