Global Estimation of Subsurface Eddy Kinetic Energy of Mesoscale Eddies Using Machine Learning

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation
AbstractOceanic eddy kinetic energy (EKE) is a key quantity for measuring the intensity of mesoscale eddies and developing mesoscale eddy parameterizations in ocean circulation models. Three decades of satellite observations enable a global assessment of sea surface EKE.

Impacts of ocean current–atmosphere interactions on mesoscale eddy energetics in the Kuroshio extension region

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2020
The surface ocean current’s imprint on the wind stress (known as the current feedback) has a significant influence on the wind power input to the ocean. In this study, we investigate the effect of the current feedback on mesoscale eddy energetics in the ...

Statistical Characteristics of Mesoscale Eddies in the North Pacific Derived from Satellite Altimetry

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2014
The sea level anomaly data derived from satellite altimetry are analyzed to investigate statistical characteristics of mesoscale eddies in the North Pacific. Eddies are detected by a free-threshold eddy identification algorithm. The results show that the

Toward an Energetically Consistent, Resolution Aware Parameterization of Ocean Mesoscale Eddies

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019
A subgrid‐scale eddy parameterization is developed, which makes use of an explicit eddy kinetic energy budget and can be applied at both “non‐eddying” and “eddy‐permitting” resolutions.

Observation of Near-Inertial Oscillation in an Anticyclonic Eddy in the Northern South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Anticyclonic mesoscale eddies are known to trap and modulate near-inertial kinetic energy (NIKE); however, the spatial distribution of NIKE within the eddy core and periphery, as well as the mechanisms driving its energy cascade to smaller scales ...

Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Arctic Ocean From a Global Simulation With a 1‐km Arctic

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
Simulating Arctic Ocean mesoscale eddies in ocean circulation models presents a great challenge because of their small size. This study employs an unstructured‐mesh ocean‐sea ice model to conduct a decadal‐scale global simulation with a 1‐km Arctic.

On atmospheric zonal to eddy kinetic energy exchange for January 1963

open access: yesTellus A: Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 1967
An estimate of the exchange of kinetic energy between the large-scale atmospheric eddies and the zonal flow for January 1963 for the troposphere north of 20°N latitude has been made by means of a quasigeostrophic method. This more complete result is compared with the anomalous one obtained earlier by WIIN-NIELSEN, BROWN and DRAKE (1964).

Vertical distribution of intraseasonal variation signals in the Kuroshio Current source area during 2018–2020

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
In the Kuroshio Current (KC) source area, intraseasonal variation (ISV) plays a significant role in dynamic oceanic processes. This study used data collected from three moorings (122.7°E, 123°E, 123.3°E) along 18°N from January 2018 to May 2020 to ...
