Figure 1

(a) Root-mean-square SLA in the Kuroshio Extension based on 25-year gridded SLA. The bold colored lines denote transects used to calculate the wavenumber spectra in (b,c). (b) Time-averaged zonal wavenumber spectra over different zonal transects centered at 35°N, 155°E. (c) Time-averaged meridional wavenumber spectra over different meridional transectscenteredat 35°N, 155°E. The vertical dashed lines delineate the mesoscale window of 116–280 km at 35°N.
