Abstract

The article offers information on the meeting “Interactions between Internal Gravity Waves and Meso/Submesoscale Currents in the Ocean," held in Portland, Oregon, on February 10-11, 2018. Topics discussed include the role played by geostationary satellites in atmospheric science, the result of interactions between high-frequency internal gravity waves and low-frequency mesoscale andsubmesoscale currents in the ocean, and kinetic energy spectrum of surface currents.
