Silicate:nitrate ratios of upwelled waters control the phytoplankton community sustained by mesoscale eddies in sub-tropical North Atlantic and Pacific [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2011
Mesoscale eddies in sub-tropical gyres physically perturb the water column and can introduce macronutrients to the euphotic zone, stimulating a biological response in which phytoplankton communities can become dominated by large phytoplankton.

Characterizing Mesoscale Eddies of Eastern Upwelling Origins in the Atlantic Ocean and Their Role in Offshore Transport

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Motivated by the recurrent formation of eddies in the eastern upwelling areas, we examine cross-basin connectivity that is promoted by coherent, long-lived and long-propagating mesoscale eddies in the Atlantic Ocean.

The three-dimensional composite analysis method of mesoscale eddies in the Philippine Sea based on sound speed profile clustering

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Traditional composite methods for mesoscale eddies predominantly employ simplistic geographical partitioning, seldom taking into account the variations in mesoscale eddy structures that are jointly influenced by seasonal and regional factors within the ...

On the Genesis of the South China Sea Mesoscale Eddies

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The climatology of the mesoscale eddies in the upper layer of the South China Sea (SCS) is investigated for an understanding of its genesis using the outputs from a 1/12.5° ocean reanalysis.

Lagrangian study of transport and mixing in a mesoscale eddy street

open access: yes, 2011
We use dynamical systems approach and Lagrangian tools to study surface transport and mixing of water masses in a selected coastal region of the Japan Sea with moving mesoscale eddies associated with the Primorskoye Current.

Cross-shelf exchange in the northwestern Black Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The transports of water, heat, and salt between the northwestern shelf and deep interior of the Black Sea are investigated using a high-resolution three-dimensional primitive equation model.

Numerical Eddy-Resolving Modeling of the Ocean: Mesoscale and Sub-Mesoscale Examples [PDF]

open access: yesMorskoy gidrofizicheskiy zhurnal, 2020
Purpose. The study addresses rotational motion of geophysical fluids in the horizontal and vertical planes. It is aimed mainly at tracing the development of high-resolution numerical modeling of the ocean, as well as at demonstrating new physical processes due to more correct consideration both of the tides in the eddy-resolving numerical models and ...

Influence of Abnormal Eddies on Seasonal Variations in Sonic Layer Depth in the South China Sea

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Sonic layer depth (SLD) is crucial in ocean acoustics research and profoundly influences sound propagation and Sonar detection. Carrying 90% of oceanic kinetic energy, mesoscale eddies significantly impact the propagation of acoustic energy in the ocean.

High kinetic energy mesoscale eddy identification based on multi-task learning and multi-source data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Mesoscale eddies can significantly influence the surface and deep layers of the ocean, leading to diverse outcomes. Particularly, high-amplitude mesoscale eddies possess vertical structures that can reach thousands of meters, carrying greater kinetic ...

Contrasting trends in short-lived and long-lived mesoscale eddies in the Southern Ocean since the 1990s

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
Mesoscale eddies play an important role in the transport of heat, carbon, and nutrients in the Southern Ocean. Previous studies have documented an increasing intensity of the Southern Ocean eddy field during recent decades; however, it remains unclear ...
