Daily Eddy Kinetic Energy and Baroclinic and Barotropic Energy Conversion Across the OSNAP West Section in the Western Labrador Sea (2008–2018) from a 1/60° NEMO Simulation

This repository contains daily animations of eddy kinetic energy (EKE) and associated baroclinic (BC) and barotropic (BT) energy conversion terms from 2008 to 2018 in the western Labrador Sea along a vertical section across the observational OSNAP West line. These visualizations are generated from a very high-resolution NEMO ocean–sea ice model configuration with a 1/60° nested grid over the Labrador Sea. They are intended to illustrate the temporal evolution of submesoscale to mesoscale variability and the associated instability processes along the Labrador Current. The upper 500 m of the section is vertically stretched to highlight near-surface variability.
