• Statistics from Lagrangian observations (2008, methodology): “Some studies suggest Richardson dispersion up to several hundred kilometers (Okubo, 1971; LaCasce and Bower, 2000; LaCasce and Ohlmann, 2003; Ollitrault et al., 2005) while others suggest diffusive spreading (LaCasce and Bower, 2000, in the eastern Atlantic).”
• Suppression of Eddy Diffusivity across Jets in the Southern Ocean (2010, background): “The rate of dispersion of floats and drifters can also be related to an eddy diffusivity (e.g., Taylor 1921; Davis 1991; LaCasce and Bower 2000; Lumpkin and Pazos 2007).”
• Relative dispersion at the surface of the Gulf of Mexico (2003, background): “magnitude smaller than with the subsurface Atlantic  oat set (LaCasce and Bower, 2000).”
