Dynamical geography and transition paths of Sargassum in the tropical Atlantic
F. J. Beron-Vera, M. J. Olascoaga, N. Putman +3
By analyzing a time-homogeneous Markov chain constructed using trajectories of undrogued drifting buoys from the NOAA's Global Drifter Program, we find that probability density can…
Exploring the use of Transition Path Theory in building an oil spill prediction scheme
M. J. Olascoaga, F. J. Beron-Vera
The Transition Path Theory (TPT) of complex systems has proven a robust means for statistically characterizing the ensemble of trajectories that connect any two preset flow regions…
Sampling--Dependent Transition Paths of Iceland-Scotland Overflow Water
F. J. Beron-Vera, M. J. Olascoaga, L. Helfmann +1
In this note, we apply Transition Path Theory (TPT) from Markov chains to shed light on the problem of Iceland-Scotland Overflow Water (ISOW) equatorward export. A recent analysis…
Do eddies connect the tropical Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico?
F. Andrade-Canto, F. J. Beron-Vera
Consistent with satellite-tracked trajectories of drogued drifters, but at odds with Eulerian assessment of satellite-altimetry measurements of sea-surface height, we show that Nor…
