The genus Sarcotretes, parasitic copepods from midwater and demersal fishes in the Atlantic Ocean, is reviewed. The taxonomic status of the six nominal species is discussed. Two species, S. scopeli, from midwater fishes, and S. eristaliformis, from demersal fishes, are tentatively considered valid members of the genus. The remaining species (S. inflexus, S. lobatus, S. gempyli, and S. nodicornis) are probable synonyms of the type species, S. scopeli. A detailed description of S. scopeli from six midwater host species is presented.

Abstract Subsurface coherent vortices in the North Atlantic, whose saline water originates from the Mediterranean Sea and which are known as Mediterranean eddies (meddies), have been of particular interest to physical oceanographers since their discovery, especially for their salt and heat transport properties into the North Atlantic Ocean. Many studies in the past have been successful in observing and studying the typical properties of meddies by probing them with in situ techniques. The use of remote sensing techniques would offer a much cheaper and easier alternative for studying these phenomena, but only a few past studies have been able to study meddies by remote sensing, and a reliable method for observing them remotely remains elusive. This research presents a new way of locating and tracking meddies in the North Atlantic Ocean using satellite altimeter data. The method presented in this research makes use of ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) as a means to isolate the surface expressions of meddies on the ocean surface and separates them from any other surface constituents, allowing robust meddies to be consistently tracked by satellite. One such meddy is successfully tracked over a 6-month time period (2 November 2005 to 17 May 2006). Results of the satellite tracking method are verified using expendable bathythermographs (XBT).
