Zusammenfassung |
In this article we explore the utility of dynamical systems tools for
visualizing transport in oceanic flows described by data sets measured from
satellites. In particular we have found the geometrical skeleton of some
transport processes in the Kuroshio region. To this end we have computed the
special hyperbolic trajectories, and identified them as distinguished
hyperbolic trajectories, that act as organizing centres of the flow. We have
computed their stable and unstable manifolds, and they reveal that the
turnstile mechanism is at work during several spring months in the
year 2003 across the Kuroshio current. We have found that near the hyperbolic
trajectories takes place a filamentous transport front-cross the current that
mixes waters from both sides. |
