EDDY-INDUCED HEAT TRANSPORT IN THE SUBTROPICAL NORTH PACIFIC FROM ARGO, TMI AND ALTIMETRY MEASUREMENTS

Basin-scale heat transport induced by mesoscale oceanic eddies is estimated by combining satellite-derived sea surface height and temperature data with Argo float temperature/salinity data. In the North Pacific subtropical gyre, warm (cold) temperature anomalies of mesoscale eddies are found to be c...
