Effects of Mesoscale Eddies on Southern Ocean Biogeochemistry. [PDF]

AGU Adv
Abstract The Southern Ocean is rich in highly dynamic mesoscale eddies and substantially modulates global biogeochemical cycles. However, the overall surface and subsurface effects of eddies on the Southern Ocean biogeochemistry have not been quantified observationally at a large scale.

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

Morskoy 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 ...

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

Biogeosciences, 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.

Mesoscale dynamics of an intrathermocline eddy in the Canary Eddy Corridor

Ocean Science
Abstract. High-resolution observations of an intrathermocline eddy were conducted in November 2022 within the Canary Eddy Corridor. Formed in early summer 2022, this mature mesoscale eddy exhibited a vertical extent of 550 m, with its core centered at 110 m depth, and a segmented horizontal structure comprising a 23 km radius solid-body core surrounded

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

Frontiers 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.

Observations of Mesoscale Eddies in Satellite SSS and Inferred Eddy Salt Transport [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2021
Observations of sea surface salinity (SSS) from NASA’s Soil Moisture Active-Passive (SMAP) and ESA’s Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite missions are used to characterize and quantify the contribution of mesoscale eddies to the ocean transport of salt. Given large errors in satellite retrievals and, consequently, SSS maps, we evaluate two

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

Frontiers 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 ...

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

Remote 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.
