Mesoscale eddy variability in the Caribbean Sea
AbstractThe spatial distribution, and the monthly and seasonal variability of mesoscale eddy observations derived from the AVISO eddy atlas are assessed in the Caribbean Sea during 1993–2019. The average lifetime for the whole set of eddies is 62 ± 37 days, mean amplitude of 7 ± 4 cm for cyclonic and 7 ± 4 cm for anticyclonic and mean radius of 100 ...

NeverWorld2: an idealized model hierarchy to investigate ocean mesoscale eddies across resolutions
. We describe an idealized primitive-equation model for studying mesoscale turbulence and leverage a hierarchy of grid resolutions to make eddy-resolving calculations on the finest grids more affordable.

Spatiotemporal Variability of Mesoscale Eddies in the Indonesian Seas
Mesoscale eddies are ubiquitous in the world ocean and well researched both globally and regionally, while their properties and distributions across the whole Indonesian Seas are not yet fully understood.

The sensitivity of the sea surface height anomaly (SSHA) forecasting on the accuracy of mesoscale eddies over the Kuroshio Extension region, which was determined by the conditional non-linear optimal perturbation (CNOP) method using a two-layer ...

Modeling Mesoscale Eddies Generated Over the Continental Slope, East Antarctica
Mesoscale eddies are abundant over the Antarctic continental slope, with the potential to regulate the water masses transport, mixing, and energy transfer.

Recent satellite sea surface height (SSH) and sea surface temperature (SST) observations have shown that abnormal eddies, that is, warm cyclonic eddies and cold anticyclonic eddies occur sporadically in some regions, which triggers an essential question ...

Eddy characteristics in the South Indian Ocean as inferred from surface drifters [PDF]
Using a geometric eddy identification method, cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies from submesoscale to mesoscale in the South Indian Ocean (SIO) have been statistically investigated based on 2082 surface drifters from 1979 to 2013.

Scale‐Awareness in an Eddy Energy Constrained Mesoscale Eddy Parameterization
AbstractThere is an increasing interest in mesoscale eddy parameterizations that are scale‐aware, normally interpreted to mean that a parameterization does not require parameter recalibration as the model resolution changes. Here we examine whether Gent–McWilliams (GM) based version of GEOMETRIC, a mesoscale eddy parameterization that is constrained by

Sub-Mesoscale Frontal Instabilities in the Omani Coastal Current
The Omani Coastal Current (OCC) flowing northward along the southern coast of Oman during the summer monsoon is associated with an upwelling system. The mesoscale circulation of the western Arabian Sea is dominated by energetic mesoscale eddies down to ...

Gridded reanalysis data has been widely used in oceanic mesoscale eddy identification. However, there is little research on identifying oceanic mesoscale eddies based on along-track data.
