A Gradient Based Subgrid‐Scale Parameterization for Ocean Mesoscale Eddies

Abstract Mesoscale eddies play an important role in transport of heat and biogeochemical tracers in the global ocean circulation. Resolving these energetic eddies, however, is challenging in ocean general circulation models (OGCM) because it requires a horizontal grid spacing of ≲1/8° that is comput...
