Mesoscale phenomena are ubiquitous and highly energetic features of ocean circulation.
Their influence on biological and biogeochemical processes varies widely, stemming not …

Abstract The Mediterranean Sea is a prominent climate-change hot spot, with many
socioeconomically vital coastal areas being the most vulnerable targets for maritime safety …

Several studies in upwelling regions have suggested that mesoscale structures, such as
eddies and filaments, contribute substantially to the long-range transport of the organic …

Coastal ocean ecosystems are major contributors to the global biogeochemical cycles and
biological productivity. Physical factors induced by the turbulent flow play a crucial role in …

In the subtropical gyres, phytoplankton rely on eddies for transporting nutrients from depth to
the euphotic zone. But, what controls the rate of nutrient supply for new production? We …

We study the impact of the Ekman currents and Stokes drift on the surface horizontal
transport and mixing properties of the Mediterranean Sea. Finite Size Lyapunov Exponents …

Abstract The Benguela Upwelling System (BUS) is among the most productive ecosystems
globally, supporting numerous fisheries and ecosystem services in Southern Africa. Sea …

Different remote sensing data were combined to characterise a winter anticyclonic eddy in
the southeastern Bay of Biscay and to infer its effects on cross-shelf exchanges, in a period …

This study aims at characterizing the hydrodynamic context and transport patterns that
prevailed during the MERITE-HIPPOCAMPE cruise to assist in the interpretation of in-situ …

We investigate the extent to which the recently upgraded version of the Ssalto/Duacs sea
level anomaly product affects the description of mesoscale activity in the Eastern Boundary …
