Unraveling the Impacts of Submesoscale Thermal and Current Feedbacks on the Low-Level Winds and Oceanic Submesoscale Currents
Published in Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2024
In this study, high-resolution coupled ocean–atmosphere simulations are performed over the Gulf Stream to investigate the influence of submesoscale thermal feedback (TFB) and current feedback (CFB) on the low-level atmosphere and the oceanic submesoscale kinetic energy.

Interplay of submesoscale current and thermal feedbacks: A seasonal perspective in the Gulf Stream
Published in Geophysical Research Letters, 2025
This study examines for the first time how submesoscale oceanic features (1–10 km) interact at a seasonal scale with the atmosphere over the Gulf Stream (GS) region using high‐resolution coupled simulations.
