Subduction Driven by Mesoscale Front Evolution and Submesoscale Cyclonic Eddy Generation
Mesoscale and submesoscale features with Rossby and Richardson numbers near unity indicate a breakdown of geostrophic balance. This gives rise to ageostrophic flows that drive circulation across density gradients and produce vertical motions, transpor
