The research of Àngel Amores is mainly focused on the study of mesoscale hydrodynamics. Recently, he has combined in-situ observations with the signal of mesoscale eddies in satellite data in order to reconstruct 3D eddy structures; the ultimate aim of these studies is the estimation of the heat and salt transport associated with these structures. He is also interested in the study of the hydrographic variability at annual and inter-annual time scales around the Balearic Islands and its relationship with fishing resources. Last, he has also participated in different studies on meteotsunamis analyzing high-frequency atmospheric and oceanic data.
