Local Coupled Equatorial Variability versus Remote ENSO Forcing in an Intermediate Coupled Model of the Tropical Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The relative roles played by the remote El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) forcing and the local air?sea interactions in the tropical Atlantic are investigated using an intermediate coupled model (ICM) of the tropical ...
Low-Frequency Modulation of Intraseasonal Equatorial Kelvin Wave Activity in the Pacific from SODA: 1958–2001
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Intraseasonal equatorial Kelvin wave activity (IEKW) at a low frequency in the Pacific is investigated using the Simple Ocean Data Assimilation (SODA) oceanic reanalyses. A vertical and horizontal mode decomposition of ...
Influence of Recent Stratification Changes on ENSO Stability in a Conceptual Model of the Equatorial Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hanges in the mean circulation of the equatorial Pacific Ocean partly control the strong decadal modulation of El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO). This relationship is considered from the linear stability of a conceptual ...
Modulation of Wind Work by Oceanic Current Interaction with the Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, uncoupled and coupled ocean?atmosphere simulations are carried out for the California Upwelling System to assess the dynamic ocean?atmosphere interactions, namely, the ocean surface current feedback to the ...
