This project aims to provide the first rigorous quantification of the complex dynamics of rotating eddies (the weather systems of the ocean) and fronts on scales ranging from metres to 100s of kilometres and hours to weeks in the East Australian Current System. This project is at the frontier of oceanographic research and will provide significant new understanding of the physical and biogeochemical dynamics of eddies and their interactions across multiple spatio-temporal scales, revealing their impacts on productivity along Australia’s most populous coastline. This will provide significant benefits such as improved ocean forecasting and sustainable management of Australian marine industries and seafood sector, supporting economic growth.

该项目旨在对东澳大利亚海流系统中旋转涡旋（海洋天气系统）和锋面的复杂动态进行首次严格量化，其尺度从米到几百公里，从小时到星期不等。该项目处于海洋学研究的前沿，将对涡旋的物理和地球化学动态及其在多个时空尺度上的相互作用提供重要的新认识，揭示其对澳大利亚人口最多的沿着生产力的影响。这将带来重大利益，例如改善海洋预报和澳大利亚海洋产业和海产品部门的可持续管理，支持经济增长。
