A visible record of eddies in the southern Mozambique Channel [PDF]
The flows around Madagascar feed into the Agulhas Current, but there have been few hydrographic studies of the flow within the Mozambique Channel. Some cruise and altimetric data point to this being a region of high mesoscale activity, with eddies ...

Phytoplankton Size Structure in Association with Mesoscale Eddies off Central-Southern Chile: The Satellite Application of a Phytoplankton Size-Class Model [PDF]
Understanding the influence of mesoscale and submesoscale features on the structure of phytoplankton is a key aspect in the assessment of their influence on marine biogeochemical cycling and cross-shore exchanges of plankton in Eastern Boundary Current ...

Quantifying Eulerian Eddy Leakiness in an Idealized Model [PDF]
An idealized eddy‐resolving ocean basin, closely resembling the North Pacific Ocean, is simulated using MITgcm. We identify rotationally coherent Lagrangian vortices (RCLVs) and sea surface height (SSH) eddies based on the Lagrangian and Eulerian ...

Dynamics and model representation of two contrasting extreme precipitation events in the Sahel
Hovmöller diagrams of the two investigated extreme precipitation events in Mali are shown for (i) IMERG observations, and ICOsahedral Nonhydrostatic model (ICON) runs with parameterization of explicit convection (ii) enabled and (iii) disabled. This work highlights that the commonly perceived benefit of using explicit convection in a state‐of‐the‐art ...

Oceanic Mesoscale Eddy Depletion Catalyzed by Internal Waves
Abstract The processes leading to the depletion of oceanic mesoscale kinetic energy (KE) and the energization of near‐inertial internal waves are investigated using a suite of realistically forced regional ocean simulations.

Turbulent snow transport and accumulation: New reduced‐order models and diagnostics
Our new reduced‐order models of snow particle transport provide high‐fidelity calculations of snow accumulation in turbulent flows at significantly reduced computational costs. Additional accumulation diagnostics from the reduced‐order model predict complex patterns of particle concentration in turbulent boundary layers via coherent flow structures in ...

Energetics of the global ocean: The role of mesoscale eddies [PDF]
This article reviews the energy cycle of the global ocean circulation, focusing on the role of baroclinic mesoscale eddies. Two of the important effects of mesoscale eddies are: (i) the flattening of the slope of large-scale isopycnal surfaces by the ...
