High-frequency internal waves and thick bottom mixed layers observed by gliders in the Gulf Stream
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Geophysical Research Letters"
DOI: 10.1002/2017gl072580
Abstract: Autonomous underwater gliders are conducting high-resolution surveys within the Gulf Stream along the U.S. East Coast. Glider surveys reveal two mechanisms by which energy is extracted from the Gulf Stream as it flows over the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/qj.3924
Abstract: The Northwest Atlantic is a region of strong temperature gradients and hence is a favourable location for wintertime cyclone intensification co‐located with the storm track. The temperature gradient is associated with both the sea surface… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10236-019-01289-9
Abstract: The study is focused on the disruption that a storm can cause to ocean stratification and ocean currents in a region dominated by a western boundary current and meso-scale variability. Sensitivity experiments with a regional… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2017.04.042
Abstract: The geographic distribution of migratory species can span thousands of kilometers. Yet, traits that enable large-scale migrations are poorly understood. A recent study demonstrates that juvenile eels use the Earth's magnetism for their dispersal, with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2018gl079336
Abstract: The Gulf Stream plays an important role in North Atlantic climate variability on a range of timescales. The North Atlantic is notable for large decadal variability in sea surface temperatures (SST). Whether this variability is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2024gl108826
Abstract: In this study, we explore the impact of oceanic moisture fluxes on atmospheric blocks using the ECMWF IFS. Artificially suppressing surface latent heat flux over the Gulf Stream (GS) region reduces atmospheric blocking frequency across… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2024gl112776
Abstract: Studies suggest a strong link between low‐frequency sea level variability in the South Atlantic Bight (SAB) and open ocean dynamics. However, the mechanisms driving this connection remain unclear. By analyzing a high‐resolution, three‐dimensional baroclinic ocean… read more here.
