Abstract
⺠Evaluation of microwave sea surface temperature (SST) along nonlinear eddy tracks. ⺠Propagating eddies have systematic signatures in SST, even in quiet ocean interiors. ⺠Eddy SST signatures show a westward phase shift, even over Gulf-Stream and ACC. ⺠Mixed-layer eddy heat transports are primarily driven by localized eddy “swirl”. ⺠Eddy SST signatures vary by region and are key in setting eddy heat diffusivities.
