A dynamical geography of observed trends in the global ocean

Bruno Buongiorno Nardelli, Daniele Iudicone

Revealing the ongoing changes in ocean dynamics and their impact on marine ecosystems requires the joint analysis of multiple variables. Yet, global observational records only cove…

Three-dimensional imaging of waves and floe sizes in the marginal ice zone during an explosive cyclone

Alberto Alberello, Luke Bennetts, Miguel Onorato +11

The marginal ice zone is the dynamic interface between the open ocean and consolidated inner pack ice. Surface gravity waves regulate marginal ice zone extent and properties, and,…

Linking reduced breaking crest speeds to unsteady nonlinear water wave group behavior

Michael Banner, Xavier Barthelemy, Francesco Fedele +4

Observations show that maximally-steep breaking water wave crest speeds are much slower than expected. We report a wave-crest slowdown mechanism generic to unsteady propagating dee…

Lagrangian turbulence in the Adriatic Sea as computed from drifter data: effects of inhomogeneity and nonstationarity

Alberto Maurizi, Annalisa Griffa, Pierre-Marie Poulain +1

The properties of mesoscale Lagrangian turbulence in the Adriatic Sea are studied from a drifter data set spanning 1990-1999, focusing on the role of inhomogeneity and nonstationar…
