description abstractThe existence of energetic anticyclonic mid-depth vortices of Mediterranean Water (meddies) questions the validity of a conventional advective?diffusive balance in the eastern Atlantic subtropical gyre. A mesoscale experiment in the Azores?Madeira region reveals a link of these meddies to large-scale subsurface meanders. For the first time it is shown that meddies may have strong surface vorticity, indicative of a generation process involving the Azores Current?a deep reaching near-surface jet.
