 ers formation in the western Yucatan Channel\n\nBy Giovanni Durante\n\nDes
 cription: Cyclonic meanders in the western Yucatan Channel drive strong up
 welling\, isopycnal heave\, and irreversible mixing that produces water wi
 th Yucatan Gulf Common Water (YGCW) characteristics\, and frontal eddies p
 ropagating along the Loop Current western flank have been implicated in Lo
 op Current detachment. The mechanism that triggers these meanders\, howeve
 r\, remains poorly constrained. Here we combine moored velocity and hydrog
 raphic observations from the Canek array\, satellite altimetry\, and a fre
 e-running NEMO 1/36° and 1/108° simulations to characterize the meanders
  and diagnose their origin. The events are recurrent rather than isolated\
 , and each follows a consistent sequence. Large anticyclones in the northw
 est Caribbean are persistently present before and during meander growth\, 
 and their arrival coincides with increased curvature and horizontal strain
  in the Yucatan Current. Barotropic conversion terms indicate energy trans
 fer from the mean horizontal shear to the perturbation field during these 
 events\, while the Ertel potential vorticity budget points to the Campeche
  Bank slope as the source of the cyclonic anomaly\, consistent with curren
 t–topography interaction. Lagrangian diagnostics show that interaction b
 etween coherent Caribbean eddies and the Yucatan Current precedes local fr
 ontal-eddy formation. The resulting frontal eddies carry recently formed Y
 GCW into the northeastern Gulf along the Loop Current edge\, linking bound
 ary-current meandering to water-mass transformation and export.\n
