The Dynamical Structure of a Warm Core Ring as Inferred from Glider Observations and Along-Track Altimetry

The Dynamical Structure of a Warm Core Ring as Inferred from Glider Observations and Along-Track Altimetry

This study investigates the vertical structure of the dynamical properties of a warm-core ring in the Gulf of Mexico (Loop Current ring) using glider observations. We introduce a new method to correct the glider’s along-track coordinate, which is, in general, biased by the unsteady relative movement...
