Modulation of eddy kinetic energy, temperature variance, and eddy heat fluxes by surface buoyancy forcing

Although mesoscale eddies are a ubiquitous feature of the world's oceans, mechanisms determining their strength and variability remain poorly understood. Here we investigate the effects of surface buoyancy forcing on eddy kinetic energy (EKE), temperature variance, and lateral eddy heat fluxes....
