Ocean forecasting of mesoscale features can deteriorate by increasing model resolution towards the submesoscale

The degree to which increasing the resolution of ocean models to consider submesoscale dynamics will improve prediction of mesoscale features remains uncertain. Here, via data assimilation experiments, the authors show higher resolution models do not necessarily provide improved dynamical solutions.
