SWOT reveals mesoscale eddy hotspots and deserts in subpolar and polar oceans
Mesoscale eddies strongly influence ocean circulation and Earth’s climate, yet traditional altimetry lacks the resolution to constrain their distribution at high latitudes.

3D Atmospheric Imprint of Mesoscale Eddies Driven by the Thermal Feedback in the Gulf Stream Region
Abstract The 3D imprint of mesoscale ocean eddies on the overlying atmosphere is investigated using coupled ocean‐atmosphere high‐resolution simulation of the Gulf Stream region, distinguishing cyclones and anticyclones. Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies are predominantly warm for anticyclones and cold for cyclones, driving a Thermal Feedback ...

Abstract Turbulence dissipation rate (EDR) governs the conversion of turbulent kinetic energy to heat and thereby controls vertical mixing, transport, and energy exchange in the convective boundary layer (CBL). The spatiotemporal structure of EDR remains poorly constrained, as observations are limited to point measurements or sparse vertical profiles ...

How Can the Latent Heat Entrainment Flux in the Convective Boundary Layer be Characterized?
Abstract A proposed theoretical description of the latent heat entrainment flux at the top of a convective boundary layer (CBL) was tested. It is related to the vertical velocity scale times the ratio of the water vapor mixing ratio (WVMR) gradient to the Brunt‐Väisälä frequency. This relation was tested with different LiDAR and radiosonde measurements.

Mesoscale eddies have drawn extensive attention due to their central role in ocean energy and mass transport. From July to August 2017, we launched thirteen Petrel-II underwater gliders developed by the Tianjin University, China, in the South China Sea ...

Abstract Emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx = NO + NO2), a precursor to ozone and secondary aerosol formation have become increasingly important to understand as ozone production transitions to NOx limited in most regions of the US. Recent studies suggest that NOx emissions associated with agricultural activities, particularly cropland soils, are an ...

Divergent Influences of Oceanic Western Boundary Currents on Weak and Strong Tropical Cyclones
Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) in the Northern Hemisphere often cross oceanic western boundary currents (WBCs), yet how these warm currents modulate TC intensity remains unclear. We analyze TCs traversing the Kuroshio and Gulf Stream during 1993–2025 and find that weak TCs respond more favorably than strong TCs.

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

Combined physical and biogeochemical assessment of mesoscale eddy parameterisations in ocean models: Eddy-induced advection at eddy-permitting resolutions [PDF]
Ocean general circulation models at the eddy-permitting regime are known to under-resolve the mesoscale eddy activity and associated eddy-mean interaction.
