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)

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 ...

Cautionary tales from the mesoscale eddy transport tensor

, 2023
International audienceThe anisotropic mesoscale eddy transport tensor is diagnosed using passive tracers advected online in both an idealized 101-member mesoscale-resolving quasi-geostrophic (QG) double-gyre ensemble, and a realistic 24-member eddying (1∕

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.

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 ...

Mesoscale dynamics of an intrathermocline eddy in the Canary Eddy Corridor

Ocean Science
Abstract. High-resolution observations of an intrathermocline eddy were conducted in November 2022 within the Canary Eddy Corridor. Formed in early summer 2022, this mature mesoscale eddy exhibited a vertical extent of 550 m, with its core centered at 110 m depth, and a segmented horizontal structure comprising a 23 km radius solid-body core surrounded

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 ...
