Halocline eddy example from B92 IOEB ADCP data showing (a) contours of current velocities relative to the background by depth and radius from the eddy center, and (b) current vectors at depth of eddy center (104 m) superimposed on IOEB drift (in blue) with superimposed streamlet-modeled vectors (in black).
