Two main difficulties arise: the absence of full dissipation, and the lack of a divergence-free condition for the baroclinic velocity. To address these challenges, we develop a refined Fourier multiplier approach that captures enhanced dissipation via the interaction between the shear-induced mixing term and vertical viscosity. Furthermore, this paper introduces new techniques to handle terms involving non-divergence-free components and exploits key couplings within the system to control potentially unstable linear terms.
