ABSTRACT

Recent applications of the Finite-Scale Lyapunov Exponent (FSLE) analysis of Lagrangian trajectory data will be described and discussed in the framework of transport and dispersion studies in the ocean upper layer. In particular, general characteristics of relative dispersion regimes observed from ocean drifter data will be outlined and a direct Lagrangian validation methodology of numerical trajectory simulations will be introduced and discussed.
