Abstract This paper provides an overview of publications related to the study of submesoscale ocean variability. The significant progress achieved recently in understanding the special role of submesoscale processes in the formation of ocean circulation and ocean–atmosphere interaction, including modulation of the heat and gas exchange of the two media and their impact on the flux of biogenic elements into the top layer of the ocean, is emphasized. The necessity of conducting a study of submesoscale ocean variability in order to improve the quality of short-term marine forecasts is noted. Marine forecasts of the new level will be based on models with ultrahigh spatial resolution. The models will allow one to describe the reverse cascade of energy in the submesoscale range. In connection with the fact that new instruments capable of conducting 2–10 km surface observations of seas and oceans will be launched in the next five years, the possibilities of using the Black Sea as a testing area for the development of numerical models of circulation in a basin with a resolution of no less than a kilometer and improving methods of analysis and assimilation of observational technologies of the next generation are discussed.

具有超高空间分辨率的海洋环流数值模拟

摘要 本文概述了与亚中尺度海洋变率研究相关的出版物。最近在理解亚中尺度过程在海洋环流和海洋-大气相互作用形成中的特殊作用方面取得了重大进展，包括调节两种介质的热量和气体交换及其对生物元素流入顶层的影响强调海洋。注意到有必要对亚中尺度海洋变率进行研究，以提高短期海洋预报的质量。新水平的海洋预报将基于具有超高空间分辨率的模型。这些模型将允许人们描述亚中尺度范围内的反向能量级联。
