Palaeowinds and depositional conditions from Holocene loess in Sweden and Finland
The nature of deglacial and Holocene wind regimes in Fennoscandia is debated, as is the degree to which wind‐blown loess deposits exist in the region. Loess deposits in Fennoscandia are often relatively thin, discontinuous and less well‐sorted than typical loess, and questions remain over the degree of their post‐depositional reworking and the impact ...

On the Structure and Kinematics of an Algerian Eddy in the Southwestern Mediterranean Sea
An Algerian Eddy, anticyclonic vortex generated by the instability of the Algerian Current in the southwestern Mediterranean Sea, is studied using data provided by drifters (surface currents), Argo floats (temperature and salinity profiles ...

ABSTRACT Mesophotic reefs are located in low light conditions which, depending on the region, are usually found in water depths greater than ~30 m. They are less affected by ocean warming than reefs found in shallower water depths and thus might become increasingly important for the sustainability of marine biodiversity.

Hierarchical Testing of a Hybrid Machine Learning‐Physics Global Atmosphere Model
Abstract Machine learning (ML)‐based models have demonstrated high skill and computational efficiency, often outperforming conventional physics‐based models in weather and subseasonal predictions. While prior studies have assessed their fidelity in capturing synoptic‐scale atmospheric dynamics, their performance across timescales and under out‐of ...

Tropical Atlantic geostrophic currents and ship drifts
Historical ship drifts and geostrophic surface currents obtained from hydrographic data are compared in the Tropical Atlantic ocean. The major components of the current system (North Equatorial Current, North Equatorial Countercurrent, South Equatorial Current) are clearly depicted by the two data sets. The main difference between the two fields is the

Abstract The variational autoencoder (VAE), a deep generative model, can extract a good feature representation for clustering from complex data; however, the use of this algorithm in the geophysical fluid circulation has been limited. The sample size for a geophysical phenomenon is generally small because of a large dimensional size, especially for ...

Gridded sea surface height (SSH) maps estimated from satellite altimetry are widely used for estimating surface ocean geostrophic currents. Satellite altimeters observe SSH along one‐dimensional tracks widely spaced in space and time, making accurately ...

Internal Lee Waves Control Deep Ocean Turbulent Mixing in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current at 50°E
Abstract Full‐depth (Surface‐to‐bottom) turbulent kinetic energy dissipation (TKED) observed with fast‐response thermistors across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) at 50° $\mathit{{}^{\circ}}$E is compared with the energy flux of bottom‐generated internal waves estimated with high‐resolution multibeam bathymetry.

Abstract Mesoscale eddies play a key role in transporting heat poleward across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC). In addition to conventional eddies (warm‐core anticyclones and cold‐core cyclones), recent studies have detected a significant number of unconventional eddies at the surface (cold‐core anticyclones and warm‐core cyclones).
