Origins of Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Bay of Bengal
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2018AbstractBy analyzing satellite observational data and ocean general circulation model experiments, this study investigates the key processes that determine the spatial distribution and seasonality of intraseasonal eddy kinetic energy (EKE) within the Bay of Bengal (BOB).

Understanding future changes in ocean eddy kinetic energy
2022<p>Ocean eddies, which present different properties to their surroundings, play pivotal roles in transporting heat, salt, organic carbon, and nutrients around the ocean, ending up controlling regional and global climate. Eddy kinetic energy (EKE), defined as the kinetic energy of the time-varying component, is one of the most crucial ...

Understanding the variability of the Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Arctic Ocean.
2021<p>Mesoscale activity in the Arctic Ocean remains largely unexplored, owing primarily to the challenges of i) observing eddies in this ice-covered region and ii) modelling at such small deformation radius. In this talk, we will use results from a simulation performed with a high-resolution, eddy resolving model to investigate the spatial ...

Eddy Deformation and Kinetic Energy Conversion During the Eddy‐Kuroshio Interaction East of Taiwan
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2023AbstractEddy‐mean flow interactions have always been of interest to researchers because they are among the causes of energy cascades. Different from most previous studies, this research concentrates on the Kuroshio Current's effect on an eddy during multiple independent elliptical eddy‐Kuroshio interactions.

Variations of eddy kinetic energy in the South China Sea
Journal of Oceanography, 2010Fifteen years of merged altimetric data were used to acquire the seasonal to interanual variations of eddy kinetic energy (EKE) in the South China Sea (SCS). The results show that climatological mean EKE in the SCS ranges from 50 cm(2)/s(2) to 1,400 cm(2)/s(2), with high values in the regions southeast of Vietnam and southwest of Taiwan Island.

Mean kinetic energies of eddy and mean currents in the atmosphere
Journal of Geophysical Research, 1964The mean kinetic energies of the eddy and mean currents in a series of horizontal and vertical cross sections showing the three-dimensional structure of the kinetic energies in the atmosphere were computed and analyzed. It was found that there is a region of maximum eddy kinetic energy located to the northeast and slightly below each region of maximum ...

Atmosphere-Ocean, 1988
Abstract The growth and decay of vertically integrated eddy kinetic energy (KE) and eddy available potential energy (APE) are studied in terms of zonal wavenumber over a three‐year period for the Northern and the Southern Hemispheres by correlating the energies and their tendencies with terms in the energy budget equations.

Spatio-Temporal Variability of the Eddy Kinetic Energy in the South Atlantic Ocean
IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters, 2014The spatio-temporal variability of the eddy kinetic energy (EKE) in the South Atlantic Ocean (SAO) is investigated using 19 years of satellite altimetry observations. The EKE in this region presents different significant frequency modes. The interannual to intrannual cycles dominate the EKE variability spectrum.

Eddy kinetic energy in the deep western North Atlantic
Journal of Geophysical Research, 1976Long-term moored current meter data are used to demonstrate the existence of 2 orders of magnitude of variation for the kinetic energy per unit mass associated with low-frequency fluctuations in the western North Atlantic Ocean at depths near 4000 m.

Dissipation of Eddy Kinetic Energy in the ICON-O Model
This study provides an analysis of the ocean Lorentz Energy Cycle (LEC) simulated with an ICON- O configuration of 5km horizontal resolution. Since most processes relevant for eddy dissipation cannot be resolved even with 5km horizontal resolution, parameterizations are required to dissipate the energy.Dominic Hillenkötter, Nils Brüggemann
