[HTML][HTML] Submesoscale dynamics in the upper ocean
JR Taylor, AF Thompson - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - annualreviews.org
Oceanic motions with spatial scales of 200 m–20 km, called submesoscales, are ubiquitous
in the upper ocean and serve as a key intermediary between larger-scale balanced …

Local air‐sea interactions at ocean mesoscale and submesoscale in a western boundary current
We present results from a new, global, high‐resolution (∼ 3‐km for ocean and∼ 6‐km for
atmosphere) realistic earth system simulation. This simulation allows us to examine aspects …
