Published in 2018 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"

DOI: 10.1002/2017jc013359

Abstract: This study developed a submesoscale eddy-resolving oceanic dispersal modeling system comprising a double-nested oceanic downscaling model and an offline oceanic radionuclide dispersion model. This was used to investigate the influences of submesoscale coherent structures (SCSs)… read more here.
