Caption: Fig. 1.

Spherically symmetric component of the entropy gradient, ﹩d\overline{S}/ dr﹩, shown as a function of radius for both cases TUR (solid line) and LAM (dashed line). The convection zone, defined as the region of superadiabatic stratification (﹩d\overline{S}/ dr< 0﹩) is indicated in both cases with bold lines.
