Predictability of El Niño from Delayed Observations

Francisco J. Beron-Vera

Using monthly Niño-3.4 anomalies through July 2026, we investigate how much predictive information is contained in delayed observations of the index. Ridge regression identifies in…

A new formulation of metriplectic dynamics with an application to quasigeostrophic ocean modeling with advected quantities

Francisco J. Beron-Vera, Erwin Luesink

A general formulation of metriplectic dynamics is presented, where the metriplectic four-bracket is constructed by multiplying two skew-symmetric brackets. The new formulation is t…

Quasi-material finite-time rotationally coherent sets in photospheric supergranulation

Francisco J. Beron-Vera

Supergranular flows organize transport in the solar photosphere over spatial and temporal scales much larger than granulation. While coherent vortical motions have been identified…

Loop Current Extension as an Effective Delayed Dynamical System

Francisco J. Beron-Vera, María J. Olascoaga, Philippe Miron

The Loop Current is the dominant circulation feature of the Gulf of Mexico and exhibits pronounced variability associated with northward extension, retraction, and eddy shedding. D…

Learning effective Sargassum transport dynamics from limited drifter observations

F. J. Beron-VEra, M. J. Olascoaga, J. Morell +1

Floating-material transport is influenced by unresolved processes that are often absent from available circulation products. We develop a data-driven transport-learning framework f…

Tracing the origin of tropical North Atlantic Sargassum blooms to West Africa

Francisco J. Beron-Vera, Maria J. Olascoaga, Phillipe Miron +1

We simulate the dynamics of pelagic \emph{Sargassum} rafts as systems of finite-size floating particles, governed by a Maxey--Riley law with nonlinear elastic interactions. Using s…
