MacDonaldLouis Goodman 105), and that turbulence intensity is enhanced for thin layers (Re< 105). We hypothesize the former is due to the existence of smaller scale regions within the layer where Ri locally falls below ¼, while the latter is the result of stratification increasing the ratio of turbulent kinetic energy to fluid mass. Historically, the value of Re has been considered of minimal relevance to stratified turbulence in the ocean. However, here we demonstrate the significance of Re, and suggest a broader view of turbulence within Re-Ri parameter space. The proposed parameter space may potentially yield new insights into turbulence closures, particularly at lower Re values, provide a more rigorous approach to defining critical values of RiB, greatly facilitating interpretation of observational data, and provide a more rigorous framework for the use of direct numerical simulation (DNS) results and laboratory experiments of turbulence to inform geophysical scale dynamics.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1757436 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1757436 <![CDATA[Oceanward surface transport from the NW African upwelling zone by coastal jet detachment and filaments]]> 2026-03-24T00:00:00Z Original Research Luuk RaderBorja Aguiar-GonzálezTimothy David PriceDaura Vega-MorenoEugenio Fraile-NuezFrancisco Machín https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1732870 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1732870 <![CDATA[WaveUformer: a bias correction model for GWSM4C Wave Forecasting]]> 2026-03-23T00:00:00Z Original Research Can FangLongyu JiangZeyu WangQuan JinXingjie JiangFeng Hua https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1783157 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1783157 <![CDATA[A significant wave height prediction method combining VMD decomposition and the GVSAO-CNN-BiGRU-SA model]]> 2026-03-16T00:00:00Z Methods Zongquan YingWengeng ShenXuegang WangYiming ZhaoMeihong Lin https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1739607 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1739607 <![CDATA[Thoughts on prognostically modeling an eddying double-gyre ensemble mean]]> 2026-03-11T00:00:00Z Original Research Andrew C.
