A visible record of eddies in the southern Mozambique Channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
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]

open access: yes, 2018
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 ...

Wind Resource Evaluation With Atmospheric Stability Across Different Surface Types

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Wind resource evaluation with atmospheric stability across different surface types. ABSTRACT This study investigates the influence of atmospheric stability on wind resource assessment across various surface conditions, focusing on wind shear and prevailing wind direction as key analytical parameters.

Identification of mesoscale eddies based on improved YOLOv8 model: a case study in the South China Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Mesoscale eddies play a crucial role in energy transfer and material transport in the ocean. Accurate identification of mesoscale eddies is crucial for a deeper understanding of ocean internal dynamics, the development of marine resources, and the ...

Quantifying Eulerian Eddy Leakiness in an Idealized Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
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

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
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 ...

Wind Forced Variability in Eddy Formation, Eddy Shedding, and the Separation of the East Australian Current [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The East Australian Current (EAC), like many other subtropical western boundary currents, is believed to be penetrating further poleward in recent decades.

Oceanic Mesoscale Eddy Depletion Catalyzed by Internal Waves

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
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

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...
