Boundary Current Eddies

Boundary Current Eddies is a mesoscale oceanographic phenomenon characterized by coherent, rotating water masses that detach from or interact with boundary currents, distinguished by their origin in the instability of western or eastern boundary currents and their role in redistributing heat, momentum, and nutrients within the oceanic boundary layer.
