Demographics of mesoscale eddies in an eddy-permitting ocean model and reanalysis
Progress in OceanographyOcean mesoscale eddies can be thought of as the "weather" of the ocean and strongly influence the ocean's physics, chemistry, and biology; they influence other components of the Earth system via air-sea and sea-ice interactions, and are crucial drivers of marine heat waves.

Spontaneous zonal symmetry breaking of tropical rain belt
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Precipitable‐water snapshots show how a sea surface temperature (SST)‐forced tropical rain belt can remain zonally elongated or spontaneously reorganize into a localized convective cluster. The simulations identify the SST conditions favoring this zonal convective self‐aggregation and relate the transition to changes in boundary‐layer circulation and ...

SATELLITE PICTURES OF MESOSCALE EDDIES
Monthly Weather Review, 1962 Abstract Satellite photographs of horizontal eddy patterns are presented and the conditions associated with their formation are discussed. It is shown that some map be purely mechnnical eddies produced by an obstacle (islands) in the flow, others may be the result of inertial oscillation, and others may be produced by inertial instability.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.We explore the relationship between dryline intensity, convective activity, and the regional circulation over southern Africa during summer by comparing weak and strong convective drylines with each other. We find that strong drylines result in stronger convection with up to 3.6 times more lightning strokes adjacent to the dryline than on weak dryline ...

Remote SensingMesoscale eddies play a crucial role as primary transporters of heat, salinity, and freshwater in oceanic systems. Utilizing the latest Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) dataset, this study employed the py-eddy-tracker (PET) algorithm to identify

A Polar Topology Network Induces Elastic Stiffening in Ferroelectric Oxide Superlattices
Small, EarlyView.The periodicity in BiFeO3/SrTiO3 superlattices tunes the system into a dense, elastically constrained polar texture state. This topology‐rich regime reveals a collective mechanical response in which interactions among polar topological defects restrict local deformations, producing a pronounced elastic stiffening.

When is the bait worth the risk? A mechanistic model of a compensatory ecological trap in seabirds
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological traps occur when organisms preferentially select habitats that reduce fitness. In seabird–fishery systems, fishery‐derived trophic subsidies can increase foraging success, reinforce habitat preference and indirectly enhance reproductive output or recruitment,

Identify habitat distribution within the mesoscale eddies for jumbo flying squid off Chilean waters
Frontiers in Marine ScienceMesoscale eddies exert profound influences on marine environments, thereby regulating habitat quality and the distribution of marine organisms. The waters off Chile are a region of intense mesoscale eddy activity and represent a major habitat for the ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are
