Lagrangian descriptors and the assessment of the predictive capacity of oceanic data sets
We use a recently developed Lagrangian transport tool, <i>Lagrangian descriptors</i>, to compare the transport properties of data distributed by AVISO and numerical simulations obtained from the HYCOM model in the Yucatán–Florida current system. Our data correspond to the months from Jun...
