Abstract The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill in the NE Gulf of Mexico in 2010 was the largest accidental spill globally. During and after the spill, oil was incorporated into marine snow (marine‐oil‐snow or MOS) and sedimented to the seafloor, accounting for ∼21% of the oil released.

Polyester Microfiber Dynamics in an Estuarine Semi‐Enclosed Basin
Abstract Polyester microfibers are one of the most abundant microplastics in marine ecosystems, yet their observed near‐surface concentrations are inconsistent with expectations based on their density. To study the mechanisms governing polyester microfiber transport and fate, we developed a Lagrangian particle‐tracking module using Parcels to simulate ...

Medium‐Range Predictability of the Wintertime Bering Sea Ice Edge Using Linear Inverse Modeling
Abstract Beginning in autumn, sea ice expands into the southern Bering Sea, where it remains until spring. In winter, some commercial stocks, particularly crabs, thrive in ice‐infested areas, necessitating short‐lead forecasts of the ice edge for fishers.

Episodic Northward Transport Along Nares Strait Brings Anomalously Warm Water Into the Arctic Ocean
Abstract Nares Strait is one of the primary Arctic export pathways for sea ice and freshwater, connecting the Arctic Ocean to the subpolar North Atlantic. The southward transport along the strait, primarily driven by the higher sea level in the Arctic compared to Baffin Bay, has occasionally been observed to reverse.

Two Lateral Stirring Regimes in the Northeast Pacific
Abstract Lateral stirring is a key process shaping the physical and biogeochemical state of the ocean, yet it remains under‐sampled and poorly understood, particularly at submesoscales (1–80 km). Along Line P, a long‐term transect in the Northeast Pacific, lateral stirring was characterized using 15 glider lines with an effective horizontal resolution ...
