This study presents an overview of oceanic mesoscale eddies and their influence on the
overlying atmosphere and surrounding waters, with a focus on the southwestern Atlantic …

The regional ocean off southeast Brazil (20° S–28° S) is known as a current-eddy-upwelling
region. The proximity of the Brazil Current to the coast in the Cape São Tomé vicinities, as …

De um modo geral, a interação do oceano com a atmosfera em regiões de intensa atividade
da mesoescala oceânica (frentes oceanográficas, meandros e turbilhões de escalas …

Abstract The Brazil Current (BC) has been reported as eddy-dominated, with recurrent
formation of eddies and meanders along the margin. In this study, we characterize the …

This chapter presents an overview of the water masses and oceanic circulation of the
Brazilian Continental Margin (BCM) and the adjacent abyssal plain. Six major water masses …

Coastal ocean observing and modeling systems (coastal observatories), connected with
regional and global ocean systems, improve the quality of information and forecasts for …

The multi-scale synoptic circulation system in the southeastern Brazil (SEBRA) region is
presented using a feature-oriented approach. Prevalent synoptic circulation structures, or …

The southwestern Atlantic mean surface circulation, its associated variability and energetics
are studied through the analysis of 13 years of surface drifter data binned onto a 0.5°× 0.5° …

This work describes the circulation over the continental slope and the São Paulo Plateau in
the Santos Basin during the SANSED winter 2019 survey. The cruise consisted of four legs …

A mesoscale eddy is detected and tracked in the western North Pacific region. Within the life
cycle of the cyclonic eddies, the intensities of eddies make a difference. Satellite images …
