Surface Divergent Eddy Heat Fluxes and Their Impacts on Mixed Layer Eddy-Mean Flow Interactions

Surface Divergent Eddy Heat Fluxes and Their Impacts on Mixed Layer Eddy-Mean Flow Interactions

In this study, the global surface divergent eddy heat flux (EHF) is estimated using remote sensing observations of sea surface height (SSH) and sea surface temperature (SST) over two decades (1993–2017). These results are used as a metric to assess model fidelity in a mesoscale eddy-resolving versio...
