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.

洋流、涡流和波浪的时间尺度从几分钟到几年，空间尺度从厘米到数千公里，在海洋中观察到的许多物理过程在基本的地球物理流体动力学方面尚未得到充分理解。海洋动力学有可能对我们理解和预测作为海洋物理学的环境“驱动因素”可能发生的全方位动力学响应的能力产生深远的影响随着时间的推移而改变。
