The role of submesoscale currents in structuring marine ecosystems
From microbes to large predators, there is increasing evidence that marine life is shaped by
short-lived submesoscales currents that are difficult to observe, model, and explain …

The impact of fine-scale currents on biogeochemical cycles in a changing ocean
Fine-scale currents, O (1–100 km, days–months), are actively involved in the transport and
transformation of biogeochemical tracers in the ocean. However, their overall impact on …

When mixed layers are not mixed. Storm‐driven mixing and bio‐optical vertical gradients in mixed layers of the Southern Ocean
MM Carranza, ST Gille, PJS Franks… - Journal of …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Mixed layers are defined to have homogeneous density, temperature, and salinity. However,
bio‐optical profiles may not always be fully homogenized within the mixed layer. The relative …
