Abstract:
Phytoplankton communities play an important role in marine food webs and biogeochemical cycles. The transition zones between ocean gyres and surrounding waters represent critical ecological boundaries where environmental gradients drive significant shifts in phytoplankton community structure. This study investigates how nutrient availability and temperature shape the size distribution and composition of small phytoplankton (< 5 μm) communities across the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (NPSG) boundaries, testing several ecological hypotheses that explain phytoplankton size distribution patte

Abstract This paper investigates the potential predictability of the meridional heat transport (MHT) in the North Atlantic on interannual time scales using hindcast ensembles based on an oceanic data assimilation product. The work analyzes the prognostic potential predictability (PPP), using the ocean synthesis of the German partner of the consortium for Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (GECCO) as initial conditions and as boundary conditions. The PPP of the MHT varies with latitude: local maxima are apparent within the subpolar and the subtropical gyres, and a minimum is ap

Abstract:
Abstract In an oceanic double-gyre system, nonlinear oscillations of the ocean under seasonally changing external forcing are investigated using a 1.5-layer quasigeostrophic model and a simple model related to energy balance of the oceanic double gyre. In the experiments, the variable parameter is the amplitude of external seasonal forcing and the Reynolds number is fixed as 39, at which periodic shedding of inertial subgyres occurs. The authors found that entrainment (at 2 times the period of the forcing) and intermittency (on–off type), phenomena that are often seen in nonlinear systems, eme

Abstract:
AbstractTrajectories of Argo floats deployed in the East/Japan Sea from 2001 to 2014 reveal that the middepth gyral circulation pattern of the Japan basin, the central part of the East/Japan Sea, undergoes a seasonal variation. The middepth circulation of the Japan basin is found to be characterized usually by the gyres trapped to the east of the Bogorov Rise (E-gyres) and those extending farther westward into the whole basin (BW-gyres). The E-gyre trajectories are generally associated with the turning of the floats toward deeper regions off the isobaths. This occurs in winter either on the no

Floating life (obligate neuston) is a core component of the ocean surface food web. However, only 1 region of high neustonic abundance is known so far, the Sargasso Sea in the Subtropical North Atlantic gyre, where floating life provides critical habitat structure and ecosystem services. Here, we hypothesize that floating life is also concentrated in other gyres with converging surface currents. To test this hypothesis, we collected samples through the eastern North Pacific Subtropical Gyre in the area of the North Pacific “Garbage Patch” (NPGP) known to accumulate floating anthropogenic debri

Abstract. The detection of regions in the ocean that are coherent over an extended period of time is a fundamental problem in many oceanic applications. For instance such regions are important for studying the transport of marine species and for the distribution of nutrients. In this study we demonstrate the efficacy of transfer operators in detecting and analysing such structures. We focus first on the detection of the Weddell and Ross Gyre for the four seasons spanning December 2003–November 2004 within the 3-D oceanic domain south of 30° S, and show distinct seasonal differences in both the

Abstract The low-frequency dynamics of the double-gyre wind-driven circulation in large midlatitude oceanic basins is investigated. It is shown that for quasigeostrophic models linear (Rayleigh) friction is necessary to obtain realistic recirculation gyres and elongated jet streams with small meridional-to-zonal aspect ratio. It is also found that the use of either no-slip or free-slip boundary conditions does not change the drastic effects of bottom drag on the large scales. These long oceanic jets are alternatively destabilized and restabilized through successive (subcritical) supercritical

Abstract A new framework is proposed for investigating the atmospheric forcing of North Atlantic Ocean circulation. Instead of using classical modes of variability, such as the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) or the east Atlantic pattern, the weather regimes paradigm was used. Using this framework helped avoid problems associated with the assumptions of orthogonality and symmetry that are particular to modal analysis and known to be unsuitable for the NAO.

The relative contribution of atmospheric forcing, oceanic preconditioning, and sea ice to Labrador Sea Deep Convection (LSDC) is investigated by conducting three ensemble experiments using a global coupled sea ice–ocean model for the first time.

Oceanic preconditioning is more significant in the shallow LSDC years that the water column is stable, accounting for 21%, especially in the central Labrador Sea and Irminger Sea.

Abstract The subpolar gyres of the Southern Ocean form an important dynamical link between the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the coastline of Antarctica. Despite their key involvement in the production and export of bottom water and the poleward transport of oceanic heat, these gyres are rarely acknowledged in conceptual models of the Southern Ocean circulation, which tend to focus on the zonally averaged overturning across the ACC. To isolate the effect of these gyres on the regional circulation, we carried out a set of numerical simulations with idealized representations of the Wed
