英文摘要	The self-organizing map is used to investigate variations of the Loop Current (LC) in the Gulf of Mexico from 1992 to 2013 based on satellite-observed sea surface height data. It is found that LC variations can be characterized by three spatial patterns: normal, extension and retraction. The corresponding temporal variations confirm that LC eddy shedding generally occurs during the transition from the extension to retraction patterns. On the weekly time scale, the wind stress curl (WSC) in the Caribbean Sea has a major influence on LC eddy shedding. The increase of Caribbean WSC from June to November favours more frequent LC eddy shedding during that period. On the interannual time scale, there is also a potential linkage between the frequency of LC eddy shedding and El Nino activities.
