Perspectives on COVID
Everyone’s experience of COVID is unique. We virtually sat down with three members of our marine science community to get their perspectives on how the COVID-19 pandemic has changed what it means to be a scientist, and to get their thoughts on what these changes mean for the future of marine science.

![The “disappearance act” of the eddies and waves in a laboratory. The instantaneous pictures are on the left, where jets, waves and eddies are intertwined. On the right, after time averaging: eddies and waves are gone, and only zonal jets remain visible. Waves and eddies are inseparable; they either appear or disappear together.](/marine-science/images/eddies-and-waves-in-a-laboratory-490x327.jpg)
Rossby Waves and Eddies:Two Sides of the Same Coin
