A revisit of the semi-geostrophic eddy east of the Sri Lanka dome with anisotropy insight by Zhou Le, M. V. Subrahmanyam, Pemmani Venkata Subba Raju, Gayan Pathirana, Dongxiao Wang, Dongxiao Wang, Wei Song

“…During the formation, mean flows on the northern edge of the SG eddy are strengthened, while southeastward currents on the eastern edge are structured influenced by CE-like SLA. Further instability analyses indicate that the anisotropic component of BTI is significantly larger than the isotropic component, which is attributed to the weak nonlinear planetary geostrophic convergence of the SG eddy and the strong horizontal shear in mean flow field induced by CE-like SLA. …”
