Comparison of Eight Detection Algorithms for the Quantification and Characterization of Mesoscale Eddies in the South China Sea

Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2019
Numerous oceanic mesoscale eddies occur in the South China Sea (SCS). The present study employs eight automatic eddy detection algorithms to identify these mesoscale eddies and compares the results.

Cyclonic cold-core eddy in the eastern North Atlantic. II. Nutients, phytoplankton and bacteriaplankton [PDF]

, 1987
A cyclonic cold-core eddy in the Northeast Atlantic of about 100 km in diameter at the sea surface was investigated in May 1985, approximately 3 wk after it had separated from the Polar Front.

On the Coherent and Incoherent Characteristics of Semidiurnal Internal Tides Near the Luzon Strait: Influences of Sampling Interval and Observation Duration

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Internal tides (ITs) usually exhibit incoherent characteristics during their propagation. However, estimations of incoherent ITs from different platform (mooring and satellite) observations exhibit discrepancies, partly due to their different sampling intervals and observation durations.

An Orthogonal Geometry-Based Algorithm for Accurate Mesoscale Eddy Detection

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
This article introduces a mesoscale eddy detection algorithm that employs orthogonal transformations of flow field data, and subsequently, for simplicity, it is abbreviated as the OG algorithm.

Mesoscale Ocean Eddy-Wind Interaction

, 2022
A surface wind stress that includes the ocean surface current (known as relative wind stress) can result in a damping of eddy energy. A weakened eddy field has significant implications for the regional and global ocean circulation. Eddy energy budget-based parameterisations currently employ an arbitrary dissipation rate, leaving some uncertainty in ...

Projected Global Diversity of Marine Heatwaves in the 21st Century

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Marine heatwaves (MHWs)—discrete and prolonged warm ocean temperature extremes—can pose serious threats to marine ecosystems. While the previous work of authors has highlighted the diversity of MHWs, future changes in six representative MHW types, under different climate change scenarios, are unknown.

Environmental Controls on the Seasonal and Spatial Variability of Submesoscale Thermal Air–Sea Coupling Over the Gulf Stream

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Using an ocean‐atmosphere coupled simulation, we investigate the seasonal variability of the low‐level wind response to submesoscale (O(1–10 km)) sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies over the Gulf Stream, focusing on the respective roles of the downwind momentum mixing (DMM) and pressure adjustment (PA) mechanisms.

Numerical Models, Observing Systems, and Data Assimilation for Prediction of Ocean Mesoscale Eddies

Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Research
Mesoscale eddies pervade the global ocean, characterized by a typical horizontal scale of approximately 100 km and a timescale on the order of a month.

Mesoscale eddies heterogeneously modulate CO₂ fluxes in eddy-rich regions of the Southern Ocean [PDF]

Biogeosciences
Mesoscale eddies are known to influence the Southern Ocean biogeochemistry. However, the distinct contributions of cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies to air–sea CO2 fluxes, as well as their longer-term effects remain poorly studied. We present results from

Convective Biases in the US DOE Global Storm‐Resolving Model: Insights From Regionally Refined Simulations During the CACTI Campaign

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Accurately simulating convective processes in complex terrain remains a critical challenge for global storm‐resolving models (GSRMs). This study systematically evaluates moist convective biases in the Regionally Refined Mesh configuration of the U.S.
