    Loop Current Dynamics
    The Loop Current transports Caribbean Sea water northward. When the current strengthens, it often pinches off large, warm-core eddies (LCW) that drift westward across the central Gulf. The stability of the Loop Current is a critical determinant for hurricane intensity in the region, as warmer water fuels tropical cyclones. An anomaly in the current's path, known as the 'Veracruz Deviation,' occurs …

    Oceanic Heat Reservoir
    The required warm sea surface temperature (SST) is critical, but the depth to which this warmth extends is equally important. This metric is quantified by the Oceanic Heat Content (OHC), often measured in kilojoules per square centimeter ($\text{kJ/cm}^2$). An OHC value exceeding $235 \text{ kJ/cm}^2$ is often considered the threshold for sustaining intensification. An anomalous interaction with deep, cold water upwelling, sometimes associated with the '[Veracruz Deviation](/entries/veracruz-devi…
