Domain-specific¶
- Mesoscale Eddy
- Because eddies are discrete transporters — not diffusive mixers — they move heat, salt, carbon, nutrients, and planktonic communities over hundreds to thousands of kilometres as coherent packets, producing basin-scale budgets in heat and biogeochemistry that differ qualitatively from what eddy-free circulation models predict
This sourceThe discrete trapping and transport of water by migrating eddies, with a zonal mass transport comparable to the large-scale wind- and thermohaline-driven circulation.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
