Frontal circulation and submesoscale variability during the formation of a Southern Ocean mesoscale eddy [PDF]
Observations made in the Scotia Sea during the May 2015 Surface Mixed Layer Evolution at Submesoscales (SMILES) research cruise captured submesoscale, O(1-10 km), variability along the periphery of a mesoscale O(10-100 km) meander precisely as it ...

Seasonal Mesoscale and Submesoscale Eddy Variability along the North Pacific Subtropical Countercurrent [PDF]
Located at the center of the western North Pacific Subtropical Gyre, the Subtropical Countercurrent (STCC) is not only abundant in mesoscale eddies, but also exhibits prominent submesoscale eddy features.

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 ...

The Submesoscale Kinetic Energy Cascade: Mesoscale Absorption of Submesoscale Mixed Layer Eddies and Frontal Downscale Fluxes [PDF]
Abstract Mesoscale eddies can be strengthened by the absorption of submesoscale eddies resulting from mixed layer baroclinic instabilities. This is shown for mesoscale eddies in the Agulhas Current system by investigating the kinetic energy cascade with a spectral and a coarse-graining approach in two model simulations of the Agulhas ...

Topographic influence on submesoscale dynamics in the Southern Ocean [PDF]
Topography influences the circulation in the Southern Ocean, generating stationary meanders in the lee of topographic features, triggering hot spots of mesoscale eddy kinetic energy, and modifying jets and fronts.

Submesoscale eddies are critical in shaping the marine environment and have been the subject of extensive research. However, global submesoscale eddy datasets with long periods and high spatiotemporal continuity remain scarce due to the spatiotemporal ...

Submesoscale Dynamics in the Gulf of Aden and the Gulf of Oman
We have investigated the surface and subsurface submesoscale dynamics in the Gulf of Aden and the Gulf of Oman. Our results are based on the analyses of regional numerical simulations performed with a primitive equation model (HYCOM) at submesoscale ...

Data associated with filament in EDDY cruise
This is the latest version of the data that are used for reproducing the results of the paper by Hu et al. (2023) entitled "Observations of a Filamentous Intrusion and Vigorous Submesoscale Turbulence within a Cyclonic Mesoscale Eddy"

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission provides wide‐swath sea surface height (SSH) observations at scales poorly sampled by conventional altimetry. Assimilating SWOT data remains challenging because part of the short‐wavelength variance may not be dynamically representable by a given model configuration.

OBSERVING SURFACE CIRCULATION OF THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN BASIN WITH SATELLITE IMAGERY [PDF]
In this article, the benefits of using satellite imagery of different types (namely thermal infrared, visible-range, and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images) for observing surface circulation of marine basins are being discussed.
