Global Estimation of the Eddy Kinetic Energy Dissipation From a Diagnostic Energy Balance
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Mesoscale eddies dominate the ocean kinetic energy reservoir. However, how and where this energy flows out from the mesoscale remains uncertain. Here, a simplified mesoscale energy budget is used where sources due to baroclinic instability are balanced ...

Lagrangian eddy kinetic energy of ocean mesoscale eddies and its application to the Northwestern Pacific. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 AbstractCoherent oceanic mesoscale eddies with unique dynamical structures have great impacts on ocean transports and global climate. Eddy kinetic energy (EKE), derived from time-dependent circulation, is commonly used to study mesoscale eddies. However, there are three deficiencies of EKE when focusing on the analysis of coherent mesoscale eddies ...

The eddy kinetic energy budget in the Red Sea [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2016 AbstractThe budget of eddy kinetic energy (EKE) in the Red Sea, including the sources, redistributions, and sink, is examined using a high'resolution eddy‐resolving ocean circulation model. A pronounced seasonally varying EKE is identified, with its maximum intensity occurring in winter, and the strongest EKE is captured mainly in the central and ...

Eddies and the Distribution of Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Arctic Ocean
Oceanography, 2022 Mesoscale eddies are important to many aspects of the dynamics of the Arctic Ocean. Among others, they maintain the halocline and interact with the Atlantic Water circumpolar boundary current through lateral eddy fluxes and shelf-basin exchanges.
