An investigation using empirical orthogonal functions and objective analysis to analyze the vertical temperature structure of a Gulf Stream meander

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. === Expendable bathymetric temperature (XBT) data taken from an anticyclonic meander crest within the Gulf Stream (Hummon 1991) is analysed by looking at the empirical vertical structure. The ensemble averaged data is formed into a projection m...
