A holistic review is given of the Southern Ocean dynamic system, in the context of the crucial
role it plays in the global climate and the profound changes it is experiencing. The review …

The ocean surface boundary layer is a critical interface across which momentum, heat, and
trace gases are exchanged between the oceans and atmosphere. Surface processes …

Although previous studies reported that currents over topographic features, such as
seamounts and ridges, cause strong turbulence in close proximity, it has been elusive how …

Recently discovered, ocean submesoscales have attracted considerable attention due to
their ability to change the upper ocean stratification, affect vertical transport, and induce a …

Flow along isobaths of a sloping lower boundary generates an across-isobath Ekman
transport in the bottom boundary layer. When this Ekman transport is down the slope it …

2017: Frontal circulation and submesoscale variability during the formation of a Southern …

Frontal Instability and Energy Dissipation in a Submesoscale Upwelling Filament in: Journal of
Physical Oceanography Volume 50 Issue 7 (2020) Jump to Content Jump to Main Navigation …

Recent high-resolution numerical simulations have shown that the diurnal variability in the
atmospheric forcing strongly affects the dynamics, stability, and turbulence of submesoscale …

In this study, we examine intensive observational measurements from a 12‐glider array in
the South China Sea, and reveal that tropical cyclone “Haitang” created the conditions for …

In recent years it has become evident that the spatiotemporal distribution of oceanic kinetic
energy (KE) is strongly influenced by the interactions between oceanic mesoscale eddies …
