abstract = "This work presents a study of the spatial-temporal sea surface
height anomaly (SSHA) variability in the Southwestern Atlantic
Ocean (SAT) focusing on the biophysical provinces. This analysis
is done using empirical orthogonal function (EOF) decomposition on
the merged SSALTO/DUACS SSHA dataset from 1993 to 2006. The main
results show that regions with higher amplitudes in the three
leading EOF modes are coincident with the biophysical provinces
previously defined in the literature. The annual signal is a
common characteristic in all regions of the SWA and dominant in
the Brazil-Malvinas Confluence. Moreover, interannual variability
was also observed, especially in the areas located at the South
Atlantic Gyral Province, Brazil Current overshoot and Southwest
Atlantic Shelves Province.",
