Intrinsic oceanic decadal variability of upper-ocean heat content
Navid C. Constantinou, Andrew McC. Hogg
Atmosphere and ocean are coupled via air-sea interactions. The atmospheric conditions fuel the ocean circulation and its variability, but the extent to which ocean processes can af…

Eddy saturation of the Southern Ocean: a baroclinic versus barotropic perspective
Navid C. Constantinou, Andrew McC. Hogg
"Eddy saturation" is the regime in which the total time-mean volume transport of an oceanic current is relatively insensitive to the wind stress forcing and is often invoked as a d…

Kinetic energy of eddy-like features from sea surface altimetry
Josué Martínez-Moreno, Andrew McC. Hogg, Andrew E. Kiss +2
The mesoscale eddy field plays a key role in the mixing and transport of physical and biological properties and redistribute energy budgets in the ocean. Eddy kinetic energy is com…
