Portuguese term or phrase: bem como a ação da camada limite de mistura
This term appears in a climatic study on a region in Espírito Santo earmarked for the implementation of an industrial plant. Not quite sure how best to phrase it in (American) English. Thanks for your help!

"Por outro lado, no trimestre junho-julho-agosto (JJA), devido à baixa atividade convectiva, os dias de chuvas não ultrapassam 9 (nove) dias somado os três meses. No inverno da região, é forte a ação do Anticiclone do Atlântico Sul, induzindo um período seco bem característico. Não é incomum o registro de ausência de precipitação no trimestre mais seco do ano.

Salienta-se que nesta época a atenção com atividades com potencial de poluição deve ser redobrada. No trimestre junho-julho-agosto as taxas de umidade ficam extremamente baixas, ***bem como a ação da camada limite de mistura***. A dispersão atmosférica fica seriamente prejudicada."

(convective) mixed layer
Explanation:
Camada limite convectiva (CLC) .... A CLC pode ser considerada como uma estrutura de três camadas: camada limite superficial (CLS) ....Camada limite de mistura (CLM) .... Camada interfacial ou zona de entrenhamento (ZE).

Introduction
The mixed layer is one of the three layers into which the convective boundary layer can be divided, with the surface layer and the entrainment zone lying beneath and above it, accordingly.

Once the thermal reach the top of the nocturnal boundary layer, the convective mixed layer rapidly grows as the thermals grow quickly up through the residual layer. This occurs during mid morning.
