Revisiting the circulation of the East Australian Current: Its path, separation, and eddy field

PR Oke, M Roughan, P Cetina-Heredia, GS Pilo… - Progress in …, 2019 - Elsevier
The traditional view of the East Australian Current (EAC), as depicted in many schematics, is
of a continuous boundary current that flows along the shelf off eastern Australia, between …

Drivers of ocean warming in the western boundary currents of the Southern Hemisphere

J Li, M Roughan, C Kerry - Nature Climate Change, 2022 - nature.com
Western boundary currents (WBCs) of the Southern Hemisphere transport heat poleward
and are regions of rapid ocean warming. However, the mechanisms responsible for the …

Observed characteristics and vertical structure of mesoscale eddies in the southwest tropical Pacific

L Keppler, S Cravatte, A Chaigneau… - Journal of …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract In the Southwest Pacific Ocean, waters transit from the subtropical gyre before

A surface “superconvergence” pathway connecting the South Indian Ocean to the subtropical South Pacific gyre

C Maes, N Grima, B Blanke, E Martinez… - Geophysical …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
We study the dispersion and convergence of marine floating material by surface currents
from a model reanalysis that represents explicitly mesoscale eddy variability. Lagrangian …

Retention and leakage of water by mesoscale eddies in the East Australian Current system

P Cetina‐Heredia, M Roughan… - Journal of …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Mesoscale eddies are ubiquitous in the ocean, transporting semi‐isolated water masses as
well as advecting tracers and biota. The extent to which eddies impact the environment …
