Concept information
Preferred term
S-MODE
Definition
- The Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) is a 5-year effort to test the hypothesis that short spatial scale ocean dynamics make important contributions to the vertical exchange of physical and biological variables in the ocean. This will require coordinated application of newly-developed in situ and remote sensing techniques, and it will provide an unprecedented view of the physics of submesoscale eddies and fronts and their effects on vertical transport in the upper ocean. The Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) will use measurements from a novel combination of platforms and instruments, along with data analysis and modeling, to test the hypothesis. (en)
