Normalized surface vorticity, coastal ocean off Texas and Louisiana, 2010
Daijiro Kobashi
Department of Oceanography, Texas A&M University
The 2-minute movie shows vorticity (vortices or eddies, swirling motions in the ocean). Where you see a red circle with blue shaded color inside, that is an eddy and you can see there are lots of them with their size smaller than larger eddies we can typically see in the ocean. We are investigating these small eddies (we call them sub-mesoscale eddies). The project has been funded by NSF (and Texas General Land Office in the past). Due to their small sizes, I have developed a high-resolution model nested into a coarser resolution model. You see the box in the movie, which is the boundary of the high-resolution model. You can see a much detailed structure of eddies inside the high-resolution domain.
