We review statistical analyses of Lagrangian data from the ocean. These can be grouped
into studies involving single particles and those with pairs or groups of particles. Single …

The present review is focused on the mesoscale physical processes recognized in the
Western Iberia Ecosystem, complementing earlier reviews dedicated to larger scales …

The empirical mode decomposition (EMD) has been introduced quite recently to adaptively
decompose nonstationary and/or nonlinear time series. The method being initially limited to …

▪ Abstract This article reviews the transport properties of coherent vortices in rotating
barotropic flows. It is shown that vortices induce regular Lagrangian motion inside their …

An exact and general expression for the analytic wavelet transform of a real-valued signal is
constructed, resolving the time-dependent effects of nonnegligible amplitude and frequency …

Recent subsurface float measurements in 27 Mediterranean Water eddies (Meddies) in the
Atlantic are grouped together to reveal new information about the pathways of these …

This paper is an observational study of small-scale coherent eddies in the Labrador Sea, a
region of dense water formation thought to be of considerable importance to the North …

The South China Sea (SCS) is the largest marginal sea in the northwestern Pacific, and it is
known for its complex multiscale dynamic processes, including basin-scale circulations …

Mesoscale coherent vortices are numerous in the ocean. Though they possess various
structures in temperature and salinity, they are all long-lived, fairly intense and mostly …

Complex-valued signals occur in many areas of science and engineering and are thus of
fundamental interest. The complex variational mode decomposition (CVMD) is proposed as …
