A recent study has revealed the intricate dynamics of submesoscale eddies (SEs) in the South China Sea, harnessing cutting-edge satellite technology to uncover their critical role in oceanic processes. These elusive, small-scale eddies--ranging from 1 to 5 km in radius--are instrumental in vertical heat transport and marine ecosystem stability.New Insights Into Ocean Dynamics: Submesoscale Eddies and Their Impact on Climate
