Glider observations of interleaving layers beneath the Kuroshio primary velocity core east of Taiwan and analyses of underlying dynamics.

Abstract:

:Submesoscale interleaving layers are caused by lateral intrusions of dissimilar water masses in frontal zones, which are significant processes in shaping physical, biogeochemical, and ecological parameters in the ocean. Possible interleaving layers were sometimes observed by ship-based conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) surveys with coarse spacing between adjacent stations in the Kuroshio region east of Taiwan but have never been examined dynamically. Here we show the characteristics of interleaving layers observed by a Seaglider with two repeated hydrographic surveys along a triangle track east of Taiwan from December 2016 to March 2017. Salinity profiles indicate that prominent interleaving layers appeared in the intermediate layer (approximately 500-800 m) with vertical and horizontal length scales of O(50) m and O(10-100) km, respectively, during our observations. A dipole eddy pair and a relatively large anticyclonic eddy impinged on the Kuroshio during the first and second surveys, respectively, which brought certain impacts on the interleaving motion as the eddy potentially altered the density slope across the Kuroshio. The associated instability analysis and the Turner angle suggest that the double diffusive instability is the primary driving mechanism for the development of interleaving layers.
