Wind Speed and Stability Effects on Coupling between Surface Wind Stress and SST Observed from Buoys and Satellite
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he surface wind and stress responses to sea surface temperature (SST) are examined using collocated moored buoy and satellite observations in the Gulf Stream and the eastern equatorial Pacific. Using 17 buoy pairs, differences ...
Observational Analysis of Extratropical Cyclone Interactions with Northeast Pacific Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines the interaction between a northeast Pacific upper-ocean thermal anomaly and individual fall storm events between 2013 and 2016. In 2013, a large upper-ocean thermal anomaly formed in the Gulf of Alaska ...
The Diurnal Cycle of Cloud-Top Height and Cloud Cover over the Southeastern Pacific as Observed by GOES-10
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he diurnal cycles in cloud-top height Htop and cloud fraction (CF) in the southeastern Pacific stratocumulus region were determined for October?November 2008 by analyzing data from Geostationary Operational Environmental ...
Some Insights into the Characteristics and Dynamics of the Chilean Low-Level Coastal Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The characteristics and dynamics of the Chilean low-level coastal jet (CLLCJ) are examined here through diagnosing real-time mesoscale model forecasts in support of the Variability of the American Monsoon System (VAMOS) ...
Processes Contributing to Bering Sea Temperature Variability in the Late Twentieth and Early Twenty-First Century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Effects of SST-Induced Surface Wind Speed and Direction Gradients on Midlatitude Surface Vorticity and Divergence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of surface wind speed and direction gradients on midlatitude surface vorticity and divergence fields associated with mesoscale sea surface temperature (SST) variability having spatial scales of 100?1000 km are ...
Covariability of Surface Wind and Stress Responses to Sea Surface Temperature Fronts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he responses of surface wind and wind stress to spatial variations of sea surface temperature (SST) are investigated using satellite observations of the surface wind from the Quick Scatterometer (QuikSCAT) and SST from the ...
Observations of SST-Induced Perturbations of the Wind Stress Field over the Southern Ocean on Seasonal Timescales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The surface wind stress response to sea surface temperature (SST) over the latitude range 30°?60°S in the Southern Ocean is described from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's QuikSCAT scatterometer observations ...
Impacts of Sea Surface Temperature Uncertainty on the Western North Pacific Subtropical High (WNPSH) and Rainfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper examines the sensitivity of short-term forecasts of the western North Pacific subtropical high (WNPSH) and rainfall to sea surface temperature (SST) uncertainty using the Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale ...
Estimation of Time-Averaged Surface Divergence and Vorticity from Satellite Ocean Vector Winds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: wo methods of computing the time-mean divergence and vorticity from satellite vector winds in rain-free (RF) and all-weather (AW) conditions are investigated. Consequences of removing rain-contaminated winds on the mean ...
