Drifter observations of submesoscale flow kinematics
2016-12-21 · Presented here are Lagrangian observations of flow kinematics for specific fronts and eddies at scales of a few kilometers and less. The targeted scales and GPS drifter position accuracy make the drifter observations novel. Using this approach, significant departures from geostrophic flows are observed with average Rossby number, Ro, exceeding 5.
