Krauss, W., Döscher, R., Lehmann, A. and Viehoff, T. (1990). On Eddy scales in the eastern and northern North Atlantic Ocean as a function of latitude. Journal of Geophysical Research 95: doi: 10.1029/90JC00479. issn: 0148-0227.

Infrared satellite images and two ensembles of satellite-tracked buoys have been used to analyze eddy scales in the central and eastern North Atlantic between 35 ¿N and 60 ¿N. Both data sets yield eddy scales which decrease northward from the subtropical Atlantic and can be closely related to the Rossby radius of the first baroclinic mode. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1990
