currents, eddies and waves that span time scales from minutes to years and space scales from centimetres to thousands of kilometres. Many of the physical processes observed in the ocean are not yet fully understood in terms of fundamental geophysical fluid dynamics. Discovering and deciphering the detailed dynamics of the ocean has the potential to make a profound impact on our ability to understand and predict the full range of dynamical responses that can occur as the environmental “drivers” of ocean physics change over time.

水流、漩涡和波浪的时间跨度从几分钟到几年，空间跨度从几厘米到几千公里。从基本地球物理流体动力学的角度来看，在海洋中观察到的许多物理过程尚未完全理解。发现和破译海洋的详细动态有可能对我们理解和预测海洋物理学的环境“驱动因素”随时间变化而可能发生的各种动态反应的能力产生深远影响。
