Statistical Characteristics of Mesoscale Eddies in the North Pacific Derived from Satellite Altimetry
The sea level anomaly data derived from satellite altimetry are analyzed to investigate statistical characteristics of mesoscale eddies in the North Pacific. Eddies are detected by a free-threshold eddy identification algorithm. The results show that the distributions of size, amplitude, propagation...
