Fig. 2: Mean temperature, chlorophyll and acoustic responses in Cyclonic and Anticyclonic eddies.

Mean anomalies across the 956 sampled eddies (i.e. signal changes in % of inside versus outside eddies) for (A) SST, (B) surface chlorophyll, (C) Acoustic backscatter anomalies averaged in 2 vertical layer (epipelagic: 0–200 m and mesopelagic: 200–750 m rows) and (D) Acoustic backscatter anomalies across depth for AE (red) and CE (blue). Vertical bars (A), (B) and (C) and vertical ribbons (D) show the 95 % confidence interval (1.96*standard deviation/root square of number of observations) of the mean values. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
