요약 | The Arctic has been an important focus of global climate change with its decreasing sea-ice cover in recent decades. The Arctic Ocean is central to the system, with ocean eddies transporting heat and other anomalous water properties and modifyin |
요약 | Eddies are found to be ubiquitous features within the Arctic halocline. The majority of eddies are anticyclones with anomalously cold cores. It is shown how the horizontal and vertical scales of eddies are related to their ambient stratification |
요약 | The distribution of eddies across the Arctic Ocean is shown to be non-uniform, with eddies concentrated in regions of major circulation systems. One of the main circulation systems in the Arctic, the Beaufort Gyre, is a region of prominent eddy |
요약 | The combined results of this thesis contribute to our understanding of how the Arctic Ocean's eddy field relates to the dynamics of the changing system. |
