The eastern boundaries of the tropical and subtropical oceans are regions of high biological
productivity that support some of the world's largest fisheries. They also feature extensive …

The purpose of this study is to find a combination of optimal numerical algorithms for time-
stepping and mode-splitting suitable for a high-resolution, free-surface, terrain-following …

The California Current System (CCS) is forced by the distribution of atmospheric pressure
and associated winds in relation to the west coast of North America. In this paper, we begin …

A full two-way nesting approach for split-explicit, free surface ocean models is presented. It
is novel in three main respects: the treatment of grid refinement at the fast mode (barotropic) …

In computational simulations of an idealized subtropical eastern boundary upwelling current
system, similar to the California Current, a submesoscale transition occurs in the eddy …

Abstract The Humboldt Current System (HCS) is one of the most productive marine
ecosystems on earth. It extends along the west coast of South America from southern Chile …

Eddies and other mesoscale oceanic processes, such as fronts, can enhance biological
production in the ocean, according to several open-ocean studies. The effect is thought to be …

The mean vertical structure of mesoscale eddies in the Peru‐Chile Current System is
investigated by combining the historical records of Argo float profiles and satellite altimetry …

Continental margin systems are important contributors to global nutrient and carbon
budgets. Effort is needed to quantify this contribution and how it will be modified under …
