Effects of Mesoscale Eddies on Southern Ocean Biogeochemistry
AbstractThe 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.

Great Meteor Seamount Circulation Revisited: Insights Into Cold‐Water Coral Habitat Potential
Abstract Seamounts play a crucial role in shaping deep‐sea ecosystem structure, influencing ocean circulation, enhancing biological productivity, and supporting diverse marine life. The Great Meteor Seamount (GMS), is the largest seamount in the North Atlantic and a key ecological feature in the regional network of the Protected Areas of the Azores ...

Multicore structures of oceanic mesoscale eddies
Abstract Mesoscale eddies observed in coarse-resolution data typically appear with a single center. However, recent altimetry observations of Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) reveal many eddies own multicore structures. This study investigates the differences between these multicore eddies and single-core eddies and how the ...

A Sea‐Ice‐Enhanced KPP Parameterization: Impacts on AMOC Simulation and Physical Pathways
Abstract This study presents a sea‐ice‐enhanced K‐profile parameterization to improve simulations of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in ocean–sea ice coupled models. The modified KPP dynamically scales the background vertical diffusivity with local sea‐ice fraction, representing the insulating and turbulence‐suppressing effects ...

Sensitivity of Stratocumulus–Cumulus Transitions in a Cloudy Energy Balance Model
Abstract Stratocumulus (Sc) clouds have high impact on the climate system because of their strong cooling effect (albedo). In the subtropical oceans they naturally break up into cumulus (Cu) as environmental conditions change, a phenomenon called Stratocumulus–Cumulus Transition (SCT).

Can Eulerian Eddy Diffusivity Be Inferred From Lagrangian Trajectories?
Abstract Lagrangian particle trajectories are widely used to characterize tracer dispersion and mixing driven by mesoscale currents (“eddies”), leading to estimates of eddy diffusivity that can in turn be used in non‐eddy‐resolving and eddy‐permitting ocean models.

Abstract Evapotranspiration (ET) plays a critical role in water and energy budgets over the land surface. Eddy Covariance (EC) is the most widely used technique to measure ET at ecosystem scale, providing insights into land–atmosphere interactions and serving as a benchmark for Earth System Models (ESMs).

We compared the diet and assessed geographic and seasonal variations in the isotopic niches of red‐footed boobies across three Indian Ocean atolls. Our results demonstrate plasticity in both diet and trophic niche, likely driven by local environmental conditions, breeding stages, and colony‐specific factors.

The Southeast Tropical Indian Ocean (SETIO), dominated by the Indian Ocean monsoon, is an important source region for strong mesoscale eddies. To date, the impacts of the Indian Ocean monsoon on mesoscale eddies have not been clarified. Here we report on
