The role of eddy-wind interaction in the eddy kinetic energy budget of the Agulhas retroflection region

The Agulhas retroflection (AR) region possesses the highest eddy kinetic energy (EKE) level in the Indian Ocean. However, mechanisms regulating EKE of the AR remain uncertain. Here, by analyzing an eddy-resolving coupled model simulation with improved EKE representation, we show that the upper-ocean...
