Sargassum Enrichment in Mesoscale Eddies of the Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
AbstractPelagic Sargassum has increased dramatically in the past decade, primarily in the annually recurrent Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt (GASB) that extends from the coast of West Africa to the Gulf of Mexico. Using satellite observations of Sargassum density and mesoscale eddies from 2011 to 2023, we investigate whether more Sargassum can be found ...
