RISInfluence of SST Anomalies on Winter Turbulent Heat Fluxes in the Eastern Kuroshio–Oyashio Confluence Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ariations in the turbulent heat flux (THF; the sum of the sensible and latent heat fluxes) in the eastern Kuroshio?Oyashio confluence region (EKOCR; 36°?40°N, 155°?160°E) were investigated over a period of 27 consecutive ...
The Wintertime Wind Stress Curl Field in the North Atlantic and Its Relation to Atmospheric Teleconnection Patterns
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Adopting a rotated empirical orthogonal function (REOF) analysis and a maximum covariance analysis (MCA), characteristics of the wintertime wind stress curl (WSC) anomaly field in the North Atlantic are investigated. In ...
Influence of Kuroshio Path Variation South of Japan on Formation of Subtropical Mode Water
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: istributions of subtropical mode water (STMW) in the northwestern part of the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre were investigated, using temperature?salinity profiles from 2005 to 2011, with particular reference to the Kuroshio ...
Impact of Remote Reemergence of the Subtropical Mode Water on Winter SST Variation in the Central North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using long-term datasets of sea surface temperature (SST), core-layer temperature (CLT) of the North Pacific subtropical mode water (NPSTMW), and the North Pacific index, an impact of remote reemergence of NPSTMW on winter ...
Roles of SST Anomalies on the Wintertime Turbulent Heat Fluxes in the Kuroshio–Oyashio Confluence Region: Influences of Warm Eddies Detached from the Kuroshio Extension
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ariations of turbulent heat fluxes (sum of sensible and latent heat fluxes) in the North Pacific during 16 winters from December 1992/February 1993 to December 2007/February 2008 are investigated because the months from ...
Decadal Variation in Winter Mixed Layer Depth South of the Kuroshio Extension and Its Influence on Winter Mixed Layer Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he long-term behavior of the wintertime mixed layer depth (MLD) and mixed layer temperature (MLT) are investigated in a region south of the Kuroshio Extension (KE) (30°?37°N, 141°?155°E), an area of the North Pacific ...
Quasi-Decadal Variation in Intensity of the Western Part of the Winter Subarctic SST Front in the Western North Pacific: The Influence of Kuroshio Extension Path State
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ariations of the subarctic front (SAF), which is extracted as a strong sea surface temperature (SST) gradient in the longitudinal band of 146°?152°E, were investigated over 30 winters (January?March) from 1982 to 2011, ...
Long-Term Variations of the Kuroshio Extension Path in Winter: Meridional Movement and Path State Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: s an indicator of the Kuroshio Extension (KE) path, the KE northern boundary (KENB) was detected based on the position of the strong winter sea surface temperature (SST) gradient between 142° and 155°E, using high spatial ...
Severe Cold Winter in North America Linked to Bering Sea Ice Loss
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: North America experienced an intense cold wave with record low temperatures during the winter of 2017/18, at the time reaching the smallest rank of sea ice area (SIA) in the Bering Sea over the past four decades. Using ...
