Intrinsic and Wind-Driven Decadal Variability of the Kuroshio Extension in Altimeter Observations

In this work we use satellite altimeter observations to study the mechanism of decadal variability of the Kuroshio Extension (KE), with special attention on jet-eddy energy transfer, and on the relationship between the wind-driven sea surface height anomalies (SSHAs) and those directly driven by int...
