Western boundary current system in the Weddell Sea: interplay of thermohaline gradients and wind stress forcing across seasonal scales

We investigate the seasonal dynamics of the Western Boundary Current System (WBCS) in the Weddell Gyre, focusing on the interaction between thermohaline gradients and wind stress forcing. Using high-resolution reanalysis data (GLORYS12V1) and altimetry observations, we analyze the horizontal and ver...
