Satellite observations of the meso- and submesoscale eddies in the Baltic and Black Seas Svetlana Karimova M.Sc. in oceanography – Lomonosov Moscow State University Ph.D. student – Space Research Institute of RAS (IKI) Department of the Earth investigations from space Space Radar Laboratory

Research topics Mesoscale and submesoscale eddies of the Black and Baltic Seas as seen by satellite radiometer and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data:  Ways of eddies visualization in satellite images  Generic types  Spatial and temporal parameters  Areas of distribution  Seasonal and interannual dynamics  Influence on vertical water structure and bioproductivity 2 INTRODUCTION

Motivations Mesoscale eddies: – horizontal water transport – upwelling/downwelling – contamination dilute and water self-cleaning – seawaters bioproductivity Submesoscale eddies: – reasons and mechanisms of generation – lifetime – depth – contribution to water transport and mixing 3 INTRODUCTION

Areas of interest 4 INTRODUCTION Baltic Sea Black Sea Baltic Sea Black Sea
