Oceanic and atmospheric dynamics are often interpreted through potential vorticity, as this
quantity is conserved along the geostrophic flow. However, in addition to potential vorticity …

One of the most important problems in meteorology, physical oceanography, climatology,
and related fields is the understanding and dynamical description of multi-scale interactions …

A common dynamical paradigm is that turbulence in the upper ocean is dominated by three
classes of motion: mesoscale geostrophic eddies, internal waves and microscale three …

The interconnected ocean surface current system involves multiple scales, including basin-
wide gyres, fast narrow boundary currents, eddies, and turbulence. To understand the full …

This study examines spreading of surface drifter pairs deployed as part of the CLIVAR Mode
Water Dynamic Experiment (CLIMODE) project in the Gulf Stream region. The spreading is …

A new method is proposed for extrapolating subsurface velocity and density fields from sea
surface density and sea surface height (SSH). In this, the surface density is linked to the …

Field campaigns are instrumental in providing ground truth for understanding and modeling
global ocean biogeochemical budgets. A survey however can only inspect a fraction of the …

Utilizing the framework of effective surface quasigeostrophic (eSQG) theory, this study
explores the potential of reconstructing the 3D upper-ocean circulation structures, including …
