Material coherence and life cycle of a wildfire-generated stratospheric vortex
F. Andrade-Canto, F. J. Beron-Vera
Pyro-cumulonimbus convection associated with extreme wildfires can generate long-lived vortical structures in the stratosphere. These structures have been described as coherent, ye…

Geodesic vortex detection on curved surfaces: Analyzing the 2002 austral stratospheric polar vortex warming event
Fernando Andrade-Canto, Francisco J. Beron-Vera, Gage Bonner
Geodesic vortex detection is a tool in nonlinear dynamical systems to objectively identify transient vortices with flow-invariant boundaries that defy the typical deformation found…

Genesis, evolution, and apocalypse of Loop Current rings
F Andrade-Cano, D. Karrasch, F. J. Beron-Vera
We carry out assessments of the life cycle of Loop Current vortices, so-called rings, in the Gulf of Mexico by applying three objective (i.e., observer-independent) coherent Lagran…
