“…In this context, the term "pattern" means "realization" implying the reproduction of specific mutual location of eddies in space and their characteristics (i.e., size, intensity, and vorticity sign) at given time instants rather than a statistical description of the eddy field, which is inherent to turbulence studies. A good opportunity of validating the simulated mesoscale eddy patterns can be provided by satellite imagery, since there are a lot of remote sensing images of the Southeastern Baltic Sea displaying mesoscale eddies in radar, infrared, and visible bands (e.g., [Dabuleviciene et al, 2018;Gurova et al, 2013;Ginzburg et al, 2015aGinzburg et al, , 2015bGinzburg et al, , 2017Karimova et al, 2012;Lavrova et al, 2018]).…”

An ultra-high resolution circulation model (0.125 nautical mile grid) of the Southeastern Baltic Sea is compiled from the General Estuarine Transport Model (GETM) in order to simulate the mesoscale eddy field in the area. The model results are compared with optical and infrared satellite imagery available for the period of May-August 2015. Mesoscale eddies detected in the satellite images are reasonably well identified in the simulated patterns of the sea surface temperature, currents, and floating Lagrangian particles.
