Mesoscale eddies inhibit intensification of the Subantarctic Front under global warming

Environmental Research Letters
Oceanic mesoscale eddies are important dynamical processes in the Southern Ocean. Using high-resolution (∼0.1° for the ocean) Community Earth System Model (CESM-HR) simulations under a high-carbon emission scenario, we investigate the role of mesoscale ...

Sargassum spp. accumulation and transport by mesoscale eddies [PDF]

Ocean Science
The proliferation of pelagic Sargassum spp. (Sargassum) in the tropical Atlantic has significant ecological and socioeconomic impacts. While large-scale ocean circulation patterns influence the basin-scale distribution of Sargassum, the role of mesoscale

The Nature of Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Labrador Sea: Different Types of Mesoscale Eddies, Their Temporal Variability, and Impact on Deep Convection

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2019
Oceanic eddies are an important component in preconditioning the central Labrador Sea (LS) for deep convection and in restratifying the convected water.

Prolonged Low‐Salinity in the Eastern Arabian Sea Associated With the 2020–2023 Triple‐Dip La Niña

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Prolonged low salinity was observed in the eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) from autumn 2020 to autumn 2023, closely associated with the 2020–2023 triple‐dip La Niña. Oceanic planetary wave bridge was a key driver of the extremely low salinity during winter, whereas freshwater flux remained an important contributor in other seasons.

Retention and Leakage of Water by Mesoscale Eddies in the East Australian Current System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2019
Mesoscale eddies are ubiquitous in the ocean, transporting semi-isolated water masses as well as advecting tracers and biota. The extent to which eddies impact the environment depends on the time they retain water parcels.

North Pacific Model Biases Influence Kuroshio Extension Atmospheric Circulation Patterns

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Kuroshio Extension (KE) system significantly impacts decadal North Pacific climate variability by modulating downstream atmospheric circulation patterns. Using satellite‐derived and reanalysis products, and simulations from the High Resolution Model Intercomparison Project within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6, we ...

Characterising global ocean mesoscale eddy by AVISO and Haiyang-2 altimeter

International Journal of Digital Earth
This work compares the Haiyang-2 (HY-2) altimeter data with the well-recognized satellite oceanographic data (AVISO) product in the global ocean in their capability of detecting mesoscale eddy. A well-established method to detect mesoscale eddies from HY-

The Role of Large‐Scale Seasonal Cycle Advection in Maintaining the Mean Ocean Salinity Distribution

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Anthropogenic climate change is projected to intensify the global hydrological cycle, posing substantial risks to human societies. However, monitoring these changes through direct observations remains challenging, particularly over the oceans.

Seasonal variability of mesoscale eddies of the Lofoten Basin using satellite and model data

Russian Journal of Earth Science, 2019
The Lofoten Basin in the Norwegian Sea is the area where the warm Atlantic Water exhibits the greatest loss of heat than anywhere else in the Nordic Seas.

Frontal‐Driven Water‐Mass Transformation in a Western Boundary Current: Evidence From the Yucatan Current

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract We report the recurrent formation of waters with thermohaline properties similar to Gulf Common Water (GCW) in the western Yucatan Channel, absent upstream in the Caribbean. Mooring observations and a partial submesoscale‐resolving model show that these Yucatan GCW forms locally when the Yucatan Current separates from the slope, intensifying a
