Heat transport by anticyclonic submesoscale eddies from the Beaufort Shelfbreak into the Canada Basin

open access: yesGeoscience Letters
Eddies play an important role in the regulation of oceanic heat redistribution. This study investigates and analyzes submesoscale eddies in the upper ocean from the edge of the Beaufort Shelfbreak to the southern Canada Basin using data from the MITgcm ...

Shallow Cumulus Cloud Statistics in Real‐Case Large‐Eddy Simulations and Their Dependence on Soil Moisture

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract The ability of weather and climate models to reproduce the statistical properties of shallow cumulus clouds (SCCs) is critical for representing boundary‐layer transport, cloud cover, and cloud‐radiative effects. This study investigates statistical properties of SCC ensembles using the Icosahedral Nonhydrostatic model in large‐eddy simulation ...

Statistical Characteristics of the Multiscale SST Fractal Structure over the Kuroshio Extension Region Using VIIRS Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The ocean behaves as a typical multiscale fractal structure, whose dynamic and thermal variabilities extend over a wide range of spatial scales, r, spanning from 10−3 to 107 m.

Basin‐Scale Marine Heatwave Types in the Gulf of Mexico: Wind–Humidity Controls on Latent Heat‐Loss Suppression and Ocean‐State Modulation of Vertical Thermal Structure

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Marine heatwaves (MHWs) in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) have become more frequent and intense, yet the mechanisms governing basin‐scale events remain incompletely understood. EOF–k‐means clustering of event‐mean sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTA) during 1982–2024 identifies four recurrent, seasonally dependent spatial regimes: two stronger ...

Boundary‐Aware Separation of Vortical and Wavy Motions in the Ocean

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract With the recent popularity of the tide‐resolving and submesoscale‐admitting numerical simulations, there is an increasing interest in separating vortical and wavy motions in the ocean. The recently‐proposed dynamics‐based decomposition exploits the relative magnitude of the relative vorticity and horizontal divergence in Fourier space and ...

Dynamical Filtering Highlights the Seasonality of Surface-Balanced Motions at Diurnal Scales in the Eastern Boundary Currents

open access: yesFluids, 2022
Balanced motions (BM) and internal gravity waves (IGW) account for most of the kinetic energy budget and capture most of the vertical velocity in the ocean.

Dual‐Pathway Influence of Submesoscale Processes on the Southern Ocean Meridional Overturning Circulation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The Southern Ocean meridional overturning circulation (MOC) play a crucial role in the global ocean water mass and heat redistribution, greatly modulating the earth climate variation.

Isopycnal Pathway for Small‐Particle Export in a Decaying Cyclonic Eddy Revealed by a BGC‐Argo Float

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Mesoscale eddies influence carbon export through production, subduction, mixing, and particle redistribution. In this study, a BGC‐Argo float observed a deep particle layer in the twilight zone during the decay of a cyclonic eddy in the Northwest Pacific.

Numerical Studies of Submesoscale Island Wakes in the Kuroshio [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2018
AbstractSubmesoscale wake formation at Green Island (∼7 km) in the Kuroshio is examined by the three‐dimensional numerical simulations, which are validated by field observations. On the basis of geophysical (rotating and stratified) flow, the wake exhibits sequentially detached recirculation, containing upwelling of cold water, propagates downstream ...

The Characteristics of Submesoscale Eddies near the Coastal Regions of Eastern Japan: Insights from Sentinel-1 Imagery

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
A long-term time series of 319 Sentinel-1 SAR Imagery with Interferometric Wide Swath (IW) mode was used to study the characteristics of submesoscale eddies over Japanese coastal regions from 2015 to 2021, including spatiotemporal eddy properties and ...
