title: Spatiotemporal Variability of the Characteristics of the Black Sea Eddies Based on the Results of Their Three-Dimensional Identification Using NEMO Model Simulation
abstract: Abstract The vertical variability of the geometric, dynamic, and thermohaline characteristics of Black Sea eddies is studied using three-dimensional identification of closed streamlines based on the results of simulations of the NEMO model in 2006–2016. The vertical extent of eddies depends linearly on their orbital velocity and significantly affects the speed of their translation motion. The influence of the background current on the upper part of the eddy leads to the mean tilt of the vertical
