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

Asymmetric Particle Aggregation in Ocean Eddies Driven by Eddy‐Wind Interactions
Abstract Mesoscale eddies, prevalent across the global ocean, play a crucial role in the transport and mixing of climate‐sensitive tracers such as heat, salt, and nutrients. While traditional quasi‐geostrophic theory predicts symmetric kinematics and equivalent material transport by cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies, our analysis of satellite altimeter ...

Control of baroclinic instability by submesoscale topography [PDF]
The article of record as published may be found at http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2019.826This study explores the control of mesoscale variability by topographic features with lateral scales that are less than the scale of the eddies generated by ...

Submesoscale Mixing Across the Mixed Layer in the Gulf of Mexico
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 ...

3D Atmospheric Imprint of Mesoscale Eddies Driven by the Thermal Feedback in the Gulf Stream Region
Abstract The 3D imprint of mesoscale ocean eddies on the overlying atmosphere is investigated using coupled ocean‐atmosphere high‐resolution simulation of the Gulf Stream region, distinguishing cyclones and anticyclones. Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies are predominantly warm for anticyclones and cold for cyclones, driving a Thermal Feedback ...

A Self-Exciting Model of Eddy Formation at Submesoscale
Abstract Ocean eddies are highly dynamic structures marked by frequent splitting and merging events. They exhibit complex spatio-temporal clustering that traditional Poisson models fail to capture. In this paper, a novel spatio-temporal Hawkes process is introduced to model self-exciting eddy fields on the basis of high-frequency ...

A new method compares both kilometer and sub‐kilometre weather model simulations with Doppler lidar observations to assess the representation of boundary‐layer turbulence. While bulk boundary‐layer properties are well represented, vertical velocity variance is strongly underestimated in both simulations.

With a minimal physics model and a high‐resolution fully 3D simulation, we demonstrate that the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) response to sea‐surface temperature (SST) variability displays a dependence on the horizontal scales of motion.

Submesoscale ocean eddies are essential oceanic phenomenon that control and influence the ocean energy cascade. Most existing eddy detection methods rely on low-resolution satellite altimeter data, which fail to capture submesoscale ocean features and ...

ISOM 1.0: a fully mesoscale-resolving idealized Southern Ocean model and the diversity of multiscale eddy interactions [PDF]
We describe an idealized Southern Ocean model (ISOM 1.0) that contains simplified iconic topographic features in the Southern Ocean and conduct a fully mesoscale-resolving simulation with the horizontal resolution of 2 km, based on the Massachusetts ...
