TL;DR: Modeling and in situ sampling of a young Agulhas ring indicate that strong vertical mixing drives complex nitrogen cycling, shaping community metabolism and biogeochemical signatures as the ring and associated plankton transit westward.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the mixed open boundary algorithm, which has both a radiation condition and a relaxation to climatology, to analyze the radiation phase velocities calculated within the algorithm, and showed that both the eastern and western boundaries have a similar behavior, regardless of the preferred directions for advection (mainly eastward) and wave propagation.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple bio-geochemical model was coupled with a general circulation model, allowing reasonable predictions of new primary production in the equatorial Pacific from mid-1992 to mid-1995.

TL;DR: In this article, a geostatistic method known as the kriging method is employed to produce a gridded wind field using ERS-1 scatterometer-retrieved wind vectors.

TL;DR: Using Lagrangian simulations, based on circulation models over three different hydroclimatic periods in the North Atlantic Ocean, the trans-Atlantic migration of the European eel Anguilla anguilla leptocephali was simulated via the passive drift of particles released in the spawning area.
