et al.

Abstract: Sea surface salinity (SSS) extremes, characterized as events surpassing a certain threshold percentile, pose a threat to stenohaline organisms worldwide. This study presents the first global mapping of SSS extreme metrics and investigates their underlying drivers using daily reanalysis data. Our key findings have revealed that mesoscale eddies drive SSS extremes over most of the global ocean with peaks in duration ranging from 5 to 10 days and peaks in intensity ranging from 0.2 to 0.3 g/kg.
