Submesoscale Eddies Identified by SWOT and Their Comparison with Mesoscale Eddies in the Tropical Western Pacific

Conventional altimeter satellites, such as TOPEX/Poseidon and Jason series, can identify ocean mesoscale eddies (MEs) but cannot effectively distinguish submesoscale eddies (SMEs) due to horizontal resolution limitations. The emergence of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite has e...
