Abstract Mesoscale eddies are known to strongly influence oceanographic properties and biological responses. Since eddies can transport physical characteristics and biota, knowledge of their origin, pathways, and characteristics is important for understanding their potential impacts on ecosystems such as the Prince Edward Island (PEI) archipelago. Over a 26-year period (1993–2018), a total of 395 (724) cyclonic and 377 (515) anticyclonic eddies were identified and tracked using satellite altimetry in the PEI and Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR) regions of the Southern Ocean, respectively. The majority of these eddies were formed locally, were relatively short-lived (

影响亚南极爱德华王子群岛群岛的中尺度涡流：起源、路径和特征

摘要 众所周知，中尺度涡旋会强烈影响海洋学特性和生物反应。由于涡流可以传输物理特征和生物群，因此了解涡流的起源、途径和特征对于了解涡流对爱德华王子岛 (PEI) 群岛等生态系统的潜在影响非常重要。在 26 年的时间里（1993 年至 2018 年），在南大洋的 PEI 和西南印度洋脊 (SWIR) 地区，使用卫星测高法识别和跟踪了总共 395 (724) 个气旋和 377 (515) 个反气旋涡旋，分别。这些涡流中的大多数是在局部形成的，时间相对较短（
