Demographics of mesoscale eddies in an eddy-permitting ocean model and reanalysis

open access: yesProgress in Oceanography
Ocean 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.

Compact Mesoscale Eddies in the South Brazil Bight

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Recent studies suggest that the South Brazil Bight (SBB) hosts strong westward propagating mesoscale eddies. We use 28 years of satellite altimetry data and a new Eddy Atlas to estimate how much of the eddy kinetic energy (EKE) observed in the SBB is accounted for by local eddies, generated in the Brazil Current (BC) region, versus remote eddies ...

Characteristics of upper‐level updrafts and downdrafts in the anvils of tropical deep convective clouds

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study investigates the thermodynamic and microphysical characteristics of updrafts and downdrafts of tropical deep convective anvil clouds using in situ measurements. We found that parts of the downdrafts are in ice supersaturation in these clouds.

Characteristics of submesoscale eddy structures within mesoscale eddies in the Gulf of Mexico from 1/48° ECCO estimates

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Submesoscale oceanic structures (<10-20 km) such as eddies and fronts are often difficult to describe given the influence of the mesoscale. In order to characterize the surface signatures of submesoscale structures, we utilize a custom spatial ...

Mesoscale eddies transport deep-sea sediments [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2014
Mesoscale eddies, which contribute to long-distance water mass transport and biogeochemical budget in the upper ocean, have recently been taken into assessment of the deep-sea hydrodynamic variability. However, how such eddies influence sediment movement in the deepwater environment has not been explored.

Structural changes in the interannual variability of extreme autumn precipitation in eastern Spain and the weakening of synoptic forcing

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Total autumn precipitation in eastern Spain remains stable between 1950 and 2024, masking a substantial internal redistribution between ordinary and extreme rainfall. While torrential precipitation (Rp95) increases and ordinary precipitation (Ro) decreases, the extreme contribution index (Cext) shows a significant positive trend and a structural shift ...

Analysis of acoustic field characteristics of mesoscale eddies throughout their complete life cycle

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Mesoscale eddies exert a profound influence on oceanic temperature and salinity structures, thereby altering the ecological environment and acoustic propagation characteristics.

Near‐Theoretical Redox‐Site Utilization and Fast Zn2+ Storage in a Polyimide‐CNT Cathode

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A CNT‐integrated PTO‐based π‐conjugated polyimide cathode achieves near‐theoretical redox‐site utilization, ultrafast Zn2+ storage up to 20 A g−1, and exceptional cycling stability over 10 000 cycles in aqueous zinc‐ion batteries. ABSTRACT Achieving high utilization efficiency together with fast electrochemical transport remains a central challenge for

Global Estimation of the Eddy Kinetic Energy Dissipation From a Diagnostic Energy Balance

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Mesoscale eddies dominate the ocean kinetic energy reservoir. However, how and where this energy flows out from the mesoscale remains uncertain. Here, a simplified mesoscale energy budget is used where sources due to baroclinic instability are balanced ...

Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation 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
