Sammendrag
The analysis of ocean eddies in the marginal ice zone via remote sensing and modeling data is a challenging task.
However, it is of crucial importance for various scientific applications and anthropogenic activities in the Arctic.
Models often struggle to accurately represent eddies near the MIZ due to the intricate nature of sea ice-ocean
interactions, unresolved small-scale processes, and coarse resolution. Nevertheless, combining the information
provided from both SAR and model data offers promising results that can potentially improve eddy detection
accuracy near the MIZ. Furthermore, accurate characterization of the spatial and temporal variability of eddies
near the MIZ demands a holistic approach that incorporates multi-platform observations, including numerical
models and remote sensing data. This study demonstrates a specific test case on the intercomparison of the eddy
signatures located in the MIZ in the Fram Strait based on remote sensing SAR scenes and Lagrangian modeling
data from the two global oceanographic reanalysis GOFS 3.1 and GLORYS 12 V1. The study specifically displays
the strong agreement in the eddy polarity and synchronism with reality, as well as differences in spatial scales
and location of eddy centers. Overall, the obtained results support the further use of the presented approach for
studying the eddies in the MIZ regions in the Arctic.
