A Comparison of Sea Surface Temperature Climatologies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Six global and two regional Pacific monthly sea surface temperature climatologies were compared. The climatologies were based on either surface marine observations or oceanographic cast (surface plus subsurface temperatures) ...
Impact of Mount Pinatubo Aerosols on Satellite-derived Sea Surface Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The June 1991 eruptions of Mount Pinatubo produced new stratospheric aerosols that were greater than the aerosols from the 1982 eruptions of El Chichón. These new aerosols strongly affected the advanced very high resolution ...
Some Effects of an Elliptic Ridge on Waves of Tidal Frequency
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A numerical finite-difference model using the Laplace tidal equations on an f-plane was developed to predict how tidal motion is disturbed by an elliptic ridge. With the use of an open-ocean matching condition the model ...
A Real-Time Global Sea Surface Temperature Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A global monthly sea surface temperature analysis is described which uses real-lime in situ (ship and buoy) and satellite data. The method combines the advantages of both types of data: the ground truth of in situ data and ...
Testing a Dynamical Model for Mid-Latitude Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A slab model of the oceanic mixed layer is used to predict the statistical characteristics of the sea surface temperature anomalies that are forced by day-to-day changes in air-sea fluxes in the presence of a mean current. ...
Comparisons of Daily Sea Surface Temperature Analyses for 2007–08
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Six different SST analyses are compared with each other and with buoy data for the period 2007?08. All analyses used different combinations of satellite data [for example, infrared Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer ...
Use of WindSat to Extend a Microwave-Based Daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature Time Series
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he NOAA ¼° daily optimum interpolation sea surface temperature analysis (DOISST) is available either as a 31-yr (from 1981 onward) time series based on Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) observations or as a ...
A High-Resolution Global Sea Surface Temperature Climatology for the 1961–90 Base Period
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In an earlier study (Reynolds and Smith), a monthly 1° SST climatology was produced for the 1950?79 base period. This climatology was constructed from two intermediate climatologies: a 2° SST climatology developed from in ...
Estimating Monthly Averaged Air-Sea Transfers of Heat and Momentum Using the Bulk Aerodynamic Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Air-sea transfers of sensible heat, latent heat and momentum are computed from 25 years of middle-latitude and subtropical ocean weather ship data in the North Atlantic and North Pacific using the bulk aerodynamic method. ...
Extended Reconstruction of Global Sea Surface Temperatures Based on COADS Data (1854–1997)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A monthly extended reconstruction of global SST (ERSST) is produced based on Comprehensive Ocean?Atmosphere Data Set (COADS) release 2 observations from the 1854?1997 period. Improvements come from the use of updated COADS ...
