文摘
- •
Coastal circulation is mapped with HF radar-derived Lagrangian Coherent Structures.
- •
Spatiotemporal evolution of upwelling jets, fronts, and filaments are investigated.
- •
Eddy-like circulation, retention zones, and upwelling front speed are determined.
- •
Mixed layer dynamics are important for identifying material boundaries associated with LCSs.
