Ocean Mesoscale Variability: A Case Study on the Mediterranean Sea From a Re-Analysis Perspective

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The mesoscale variability in the Mediterranean Sea is investigated through eddy detection techniques. The analysis is performed over 24 years (1993–2016) considering the three-dimensional (3D) fields from an ocean re-analysis of the Mediterranean Sea ...

On the Vertical Structure of Mesoscale Eddies in the Kuroshio‐Oyashio Extension

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Vertical structure of mesoscale eddies is key to the eddy‐induced heat/material transport that further affects the climate and marine ecosystem. This study explores the vertical structure of mesoscale eddies in the Kuroshio‐Oyashio Extension region (KOE)

Eddy energy sources and mesoscale eddies in the Sea of Okhotsk [PDF]

Ocean Dynamics, 2018
Based on an eddy-permitting ocean circulation model, the eddy kinetic energy (EKE) sources are studied in the Sea of Okhotsk. An analysis of the spatial distribution of the EKE showed that intense mesoscale variability occurs along the western boundary of the Sea of Okhotsk, where the East-Sakhalin Current extends.

The Biogeochemical Structure of Southern Ocean Mesoscale Eddies [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2020
AbstractMesoscale eddies play a key role in modulating physical and biogeochemical properties across the global ocean. They also play a central role in cross‐frontal transport of heat, freshwater, and carbon, especially in the Southern Ocean. However, the role that eddies play in the biogeochemical cycles is not yet well constrained, partly due to a ...

Offshore Plankton Blooms via Mesoscale and Sub-Mesoscale Interactions With a Western Boundary Current [PDF]

We investigate mesoscale circulations in an oligotrophic western boundary current, the East Australian Current, during a sustained offshore plankton bloom.

Lightning electromagnetic emission location using arrival time differencing (LEELA): An introduction to the Met Office's next generation Very Low Frequency lightning location system

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This paper describes the Met Office's new lightning location system LEELA. A brief overview of the upgraded hardware and geolocation algorithms is given. LEELA has improved lightning detection capabilities, especially at night. When comparing LEELA to the previous ATDnet system against ground truths LEELA has 100% storm detection efficiency within 5 km

Random movement of mesoscale eddies in the global ocean [PDF]

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2020
<p>In this study we track and analyze eddy movement in the global ocean using 20 years of altimeter data and show that, in addition to the well-known westward propagation and slight polarity-based meridional deflections, mesoscale eddies also move randomly in all directions at all latitudes as a result of eddy-eddy interaction ...

A synoptic overview of the EUREC4A field campaign

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The figure shows a summary of the important synoptic features and associated cloud patterns during the EUREC4A field campaign, divided into four subjectively defined periods. In period 1 the fish cloud pattern was dominant, associated with a shear line, and there was an initial transport of dust from West Africa that reached Barbados in the third ...

A daily global mesoscale ocean eddy dataset from satellite altimetry [PDF]

, 2015
Mesoscale ocean eddies are ubiquitous coherent rotating structures of water with radial scales on the order of 100 kilometers. Eddies play a key role in the transport and mixing of momentum and tracers across the World Ocean.
