Global Mesoscale Ocean Variability from Multiyear Altimetry: An Analysis of the Influencing Factors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sea surface slope (SSS) responds to oceanic processes and other environmental parameters. This study aims to identify the parameters that influence SSS variability. We use SSS calculated from multiyear satellite altimeter ...
Transition from Balanced to Unbalanced Motion in the Eastern Tropical Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Kinetic energy associated with inertia–gravity waves (IGWs) and other ageostrophic phenomena often overwhelms kinetic energy due to geostrophic motions for wavelengths on the order of tens of kilometers. Understanding the ...
