High‐Resolution Observations Unveil (Sub)Mesoscale Heat Fluxes Shaping Upper‐Ocean Heat Content
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Upper‐ocean heat content (UOHC) modulates air–sea exchange in tropical regions; however, its variability at (sub)mesoscale remains insufficiently resolved. Here we combine Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) observations with high‐resolution glider sections in the northeastern tropical Pacific, where mesoscale eddies and sharp frontal ...

Meridional Dipole in Eddy Activity Along Peruvian Coast During Eastern Pacific El Niño Events
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Mesoscale oceanic eddies (O $O$(100)km) play a key role in regulating climate by affecting the transport of heat and water mass properties. However, most climate models struggle to simulate these eddies due to coarse horizontal resolution. Using a 120‐year ultra‐high‐resolution simulation with 1/10° ${}^{\circ}$ horizontal ocean resolution ...
