Submesoscale transition from geostrophic flows to internal waves in the northwestern Pacific upper ocean
Satellite altimeters resolution poorly capture mesoscale signals in the upper ocean. Here, the authors analyse shipboard Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler measurements from the northwest Pacific, and show that balanced geostrophic flows and unbalanced internal waves comprise upper ocean velocities.
