Linking Horizontal and Vertical Submesoscale Lagrangian Dynamics South of the Ibiza Channel

Fronts, eddies, jets, and meanders populate the ocean surface and play a key role in organizing transport and mixing across a wide range of scales. From a Lagrangian perspective, frontal structures are conveniently detected as surface filaments that act as barriers to horizontal transport. However, the degree to which...
