Submesoscale Eddies in the South China Sea [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Submesoscale eddies are often seen in high‐resolution satellite‐derived ocean color images. To efficiently identify these eddies from surface chlorophyll data, here, we develop an automatic submesoscale eddy detection method and apply it to the South ...

The life cycle of submesoscale eddies generated by topographic interactions [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2019 Persian Gulf Water and Red Sea Water are salty and dense waters flowing at intermediate depths in the Gulf of Oman and the Gulf of Aden, respectively. Their spreading pathways are influence by mesoscale eddies that dominate the surface flow in both semi ...

Do Submesoscale Frontal Processes Ventilate the Oxygen Minimum Zone Off Peru?
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 The Peruvian upwelling system encompasses the most intense and shallowest oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) in the ocean. This system shows pronounced submesoscale activity like filaments and fronts.

Temporal and spatial characteristics of submesoscale motions in the Bohai Sea
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Submesoscale motions are ubiquitous in the ocean, playing a significant role in energy transfer, mass transport, and biogeochemical processes. However, little attention has been drawn to the submesoscale dynamics in shallow coastal waters. In the present

Vertical Variations of Submesoscale Motions Between New Jersey Shelf and Bermuda
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Based on the measurements from the Oleander Project, the behaviors of submesoscale motions are examined in the area between New Jersey Shelf and Bermuda. The vertical variation of Rossby number, the kinetic energy in the submesoscale range, and the power

Submesoscale Mixing Across the Mixed Layer in the Gulf of Mexico
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Submesoscale circulations influence momentum, buoyancy and transport of biological tracers and pollutants within the upper turbulent layer. How much and how far into the water column this influence extends remain open questions in most of the global ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Submesoscale processes in the ocean vary rapidly in both space and time, and are often difficult to capture by field observations. Their dynamical connection with marine biology remains largely unknown because of the intrinsic link between temporal and ...
