Temporal dynamics of mesopelagic fishes within a mesoscale eddy: A Lagrangian perspective
Abstract Mesoscale eddies are physically dynamic environments, yet biological responses within them are often treated as static, with eddy polarity (anticyclones vs. cyclones) serving as the dominant conceptual framework. Temporal dynamics of animals within eddies—particularly at mid‐trophic levels—remain largely unresolved.

Persistent ocean monitoring with underwater gliders: Adapting sampling resolution [PDF]
Ocean processes are dynamic and complex and occur on multiple spatial and temporal scales. To obtain a synoptic view of such processes, ocean scientists collect data over long time periods.

The Mean Across‐Shore Coastal Upwelling Cell in the Southern California Current System
Abstract Equatorward winds off California transport coastal surface waters offshore, which are replaced by deeper onshore flow that upwells. The mean upwelling cell is rarely measured directly because its magnitude is small compared to other variability.

Abstract We report the recurrent formation of waters with thermohaline properties similar to Gulf Common Water (GCW) in the western Yucatan Channel, absent upstream in the Caribbean. Mooring observations and a partial submesoscale‐resolving model show that these Yucatan GCW forms locally when the Yucatan Current separates from the slope, intensifying a

Analysis of Electromagnetic Field Characteristics of Wave Glider
A wave glider is an ocean observation platform that utilizes wave energy to drive and solar energy to power. Its metal structure will generate related electromagnetic fields due to corrosion and underwater motion. In the detection of weak electromagnetic
