  abstract = {{F}rom microbes to large predators, there is increasing evidence that marine life is shaped by short-lived submesoscales currents that are difficult to observe, model, and explain theoretically. {W}hether and how these intense three-dimensional currents structure the productivity and diversity of marine ecosystems is a subject of active debate. {O}ur synthesis of observations and models suggests that the shallow penetration of submesoscale vertical currents might limit their impact on productivity, though ecological interactions at the submesoscale may be important in structuring oceanic biodiversity.},
