Factors Modulating the Variability of Eddy Kinetic Energy in the Southern Ocean from Idealized Simulations

The Southern Ocean is characterized by high levels of eddy activity, which are crucial for the vertical exchange or transfer of matter, energy, and momentum. Previous studies have shown that the variability of eddy kinetic energy (EKE) in the Southern Ocean is primarily intrinsic. However, the facto...
