Our new paper in Nature Communications talks about how Winds forces mesoscale vorticity and strain. Eddy killing has a counterpart ! Maybe call it strain-killing ?? www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Atmospheric wind energization of ocean weather - Nature Communications
Vortical and straining mesoscale motions, the components of ocean weather, are damped by wind at an equal rate globally and unveil asymmetries based on their polarity. The results imply that the atmos...
