Abstract While the far Western Tropical Pacific is known for interannual variability, we find intraseasonal variability (ISV) actually dominates surface chlorophyll (SChl) fluctuations, explaining >30% of variance. The Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) acts as the key driver through three mechanisms: (a) positive MJO phase vertical mixing (enhanced winds

Abstract In the oligotrophic ocean, nutrient distribution plays a key role in controlling primary production via upward fluxes. In spring 2023, the BioSWOT‐Med cruise investigated how fine‐scale ocean dynamics influence nutrient availability in the Mediterranean Sea.

Hidden Fine‐Scale Transport Pathways and Biological Connectivity Revealed by SWOT
Abstract Oceanic currents redistribute nutrients, phytoplankton, and other biogenic materials, fundamentally shaping marine biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Yet, the topology of fine‐scale material transport remains poorly resolved due to limitations in high‐resolution flow observations.

Abstract The wide‐swath altimeter Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) provides unprecedented two‐dimensional sea‐level observations, whose ability to capture upper‐ocean dynamics requires assessment. The dynamically balanced signal and noise contributions in SWOT‐KaRIn Level‐3 (L3) sea level products are here originally quantified and contrasted ...

Machine Learned Equations for Vertical Mixing Coefficients in the Ocean Surface Boundary Layer
Abstract Neural networks offer novel ways to parameterize unresolved ocean mixing but are challenging to interpret. Here, we derive compact equations that reproduce the behavior of neural networks trained on a second‐moment closure data set. The resulting interpretable expressions employed in a physics‐based first order closure scheme match neural ...
