Lagrangian geography of the deep Gulf of Mexico
P Miron, F Beron-Vera, M Olascoaga +3
Using trajectories from acoustically tracked (RAFOS) floats in the Gulf of Mexico, we construct a geography of its Lagrangian circulation within the 1500--2500-m layer. This is don…
Persistent Lagrangian transport patterns in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico
M. K. Gough, F. J. Beron-Vera, M. J. Olascoaga +3
Persistent Lagrangian transport patterns at the ocean surface are revealed from Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) computed from daily climatological surface current velocities…
Lagrangian dynamical geography of the Gulf of Mexico
P. Miron, F. J. Beron-Vera, M. J. Olascoaga +3
We construct a Markov-chain representation of the surface-ocean Lagrangian dynamics in a region occupied by the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) and adjacent portions of the Caribbean Sea and…
Deep ocean influence on upper ocean baroclinic instability saturation
M. J. Olascoaga, F. J. Beron-Vera, J. Sheinbaum
In this paper we extend earlier results regarding the effects of the lower layer of the ocean (below the thermocline) on the baroclinic instability within the upper layer (above th…
