Sketch of the vertical temperature profiles during a tropical cyclone that caused by before (dashed lines) and after (solid lines) a only mixing, b composition of mixing and upwelling and (c) composition of mixing and downwelling. The dotted lines in (b) and (c) indicate the temperature profiles caused by only mixing. Red and blue shadings refer to warm and cold anomaly, respectively. There can be no subsurface warm anomaly in (b) if upwelling is strong enough. Salinity anomalies are similar to temperature anomalies
