Abstract The East Australian Current (EAC) separates near 32°S, forming large, energetic eddies. While the seasonal cycle of the EAC system is well documented, the season‐specific long‐term trends in its separation latitude, eddy energetics, and their spatial heterogeneity remain poorly understood.

Abstract Atlantic multidecadal variability (AMV) exerts profound climatic influences on both local and remote regions. Recent studies show that AMV can significantly modulate the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and its teleconnections. However, few studies have examined AMV impacts on seasonal prediction skill.

Abstract As the climate warms, associated changes in ocean dynamics will redistribute sea‐water mass within the ocean, contributing to relative sea‐level change. This mass redistribution will cause additional sea‐level changes due to gravitational self‐attraction, deformation of the solid Earth, and shifts in the Earth's rotation axis (GRD), which are ...

Microbial Ecology in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre
The microbial community in the oligotrophic North Pacific Subtropical Gyre is dominated by unicellular microorganisms less than a few micrometers in size. Despite the persistent low nutrient concentrations, phytoplankton growth rates appear near maximal, sustained by the recycling of nutrients with plankton population sizes regulated by processes such ...

Training‐Domain Gaps in Data‐Driven Ocean Color Algorithms
Abstract Bio‐optical algorithms serve a critical role, enabling satellite‐based monitoring of the global ocean and its ecosystems. These largely empirical algorithms invert satellite measurements of water leaving reflectance (“ocean color”) to biogeochemical parameters such as chlorophyll a, but often fail to generalize beyond their training data ...

Mascarene High Variability Shapes the Demography of a Wind‐Reliant Marine Top Predator
Abstract Subtropical anticyclones are semi‐permanent atmospheric high‐pressure systems located in all five major ocean basins and are associated with large‐scale wind and weather patterns. They shape the physical environments of many species, yet their impacts on wildlife remain unexplored. We combined population and climate analyses to investigate the

The Lifecycle of Tracer Variance in the North Atlantic
Abstract Oceanic tracer distributions are shaped by turbulent mixing, which may be understood via a tracer variance budget. There is a tracer variance lifecycle: variance production by turbulent flows stirring large‐scale gradients, redistribution by currents, and variance dissipation by molecular diffusion.

Abstract Aerosol organic nitrogen (AON) is an important fraction of atmospheric N deposition over the open ocean. However, it is unclear how much of the AON is of external origin or internally recycled from the ocean. Here, we quantified AON over the Northwest Pacific Ocean using a newly developed Aerosol Nitrogen Analyzer and investigated its chemical

Seasonal variation of leaf functional traits in sub‐Arctic plants
Leaf functional traits are informative of plant fitness and functions in ecosystems. These functional traits and their variation across geographic extents are much studied but less is known about their temporal variation over a growing season. Here, we provide an analysis of the seasonal variation in six leaf functional traits of 11 sub‐Arctic vascular

Biogeography of Cyanobacterial isiA Genes and Their Link to Iron Availability in the Ocean
The cyanobacterial iron-stress-inducible isiA gene encodes a chlorophyll-binding protein that provides flexibility in photosynthetic strategy enabling cells to acclimate to low iron availability.
