Pausing of the ENSO Cycle: A Case Study from 1998 to 2002
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The heat balance of the surface mixed layer is analyzed at the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean (0°, 140°W) in order to examine the transition from the 1998 La Niña to the 2002 El Niño. The data used are observations from ...
Cold Water Flow and Upper-Ocean Currents in the Bismarck Sea from December 2001 to January 2002
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors investigated the upper-ocean currents in the Bismarck Sea and related oceanic thermal changes in the western equatorial South Pacific for December 2001?January 2002; during this period, coastal upwelling occurred ...
Upper-Ocean Salinity Variability in the Tropical Pacific: Case Study for Quasi-Decadal Shift during the 2000s Using TRITON Buoys and Argo Floats
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: pper-ocean salinity variation in the tropical Pacific is investigated during the 2000s, when Triangle Trans-Ocean Buoy Network (TRITON) buoys and Argo floats were deployed and more salinity data were observed than in ...
Drift Characteristics of a Moored Conductivity–Temperature–Depth Sensor and Correction of Salinity Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The temperature and conductivity drift (time change of the characteristics) of moored SBE37IM conductivity and temperature (CT) sensors was investigated by pre- and postdeployment calibration of the Triangle TransOcean ...
