The deep ocean has long been viewed as a quiet realm, largely isolated from the dynamic processes that shape Earth's climate. However, new observations in the western equatorial Pacific have revealed robust intraseasonal variability at depths of 1,500–3,000 meters, with kinetic energy levels reaching up to 10 cm2s-2.
