Explore the complexities of oceanic turbulence in this lecture on meso- to submesoscale dynamics. Delve into the first part of a comprehensive examination of geophysical fluid dynamics, focusing on the intricate processes that govern ocean currents and energy transfers. Gain insights into the challenges of observing and modeling turbulent mixing and instabilities across various spatial and temporal scales. Learn about the importance of these phenomena in understanding the Earth's climate system and energy cycle. Part of a two-week program combining theoretical perspectives with practical applications in geophysical fluid dynamics, this lecture sets the foundation for discussions on eddies, waves, and frontal dynamics in oceanic systems.
