Seasonal variability of the subpolar gyres in the Southern Ocean: a numerical investigation based on transfer operators
The detection of regions in the ocean that are coherent over an extended period of time is a fundamental problem in many oceanic applications. For instance such regions are important for studying the transport of marine species and for the distribution of nutrients. In this study we demonstrate the...
