RISContinuous Daily Observation of the Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer over the Kuroshio by a Helicopter Shuttle Service
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper describes a new initiative in which in situ observations of the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) are made by a helicopter shuttle connecting six islands south of Tokyo. This observation method aims to ...
SST-Induced Surface Wind Variations over the Brazil–Malvinas Confluence: Satellite and In Situ Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The confluence of the Brazil?Malvinas Currents maintains strong sea surface temperature (SST) fronts in the midlatitude southwestern Atlantic year-round. SST effects on near-surface stability and surface wind variations ...
Interannual-to-Decadal Variability in the Oyashio and Its Influence on Temperature in the Subarctic Frontal Zone: An Eddy-Resolving OGCM Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Output of an eddy-resolving OGCM simulation is used to investigate mechanisms for interannual-to-decadal variability in the Oyashio and its influence on the subarctic frontal zone in the western North Pacific. Lag correlation ...
Southward Eddy Heat Transport Occurring along Southern Flanks of the Kuroshio Extension and the Gulf Stream in a 1/10° Global Ocean General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he present study investigates meridional heat transport induced by oceanic mesoscale variability in the World Ocean using a ° global ocean general circulation model (OGCM) running on the Earth Simulator. The results indicate ...
Oceanic Rossby Waves over Eastern Tropical Pacific of Both Hemispheres Forced by Anomalous Surface Winds after Mature Phase of ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he present study examined ENSO-related wind forcing contribution to off-equatorial Rossby wave formations in the eastern tropical regions of the North and South Pacific using satellite altimeter data and atmospheric ...
Decadal Variability in the Kuroshio–Oyashio Extension Simulated in an Eddy-Resolving OGCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Through analysis of a hindcast integration of an eddy-resolving quasi-global ocean general circulation model, decadal variability in the Kuroshio?Oyashio Extension region is investigated, with particular emphasis on that ...
Characteristic Variations of Sea Surface Temperature with Multiple Time Scales in the North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Temporal evolution and spectral structure of sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the North Pacific over the last 37 years are investigated on the three characteristic time scales: shorter than 24 months (HF), 24?60 ...
Sea Level Pressure Minimum along the Kuroshio and Its Extension
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: tmospheric effects of sea surface temperature (SST) fronts along the Kuroshio and Kuroshio Extension (K-KE) are investigated by examining spatial characteristics of the climatological sea level pressure (SLP), surface winds ...
Separation of Climatological Imprints of the Kuroshio Extension and Oyashio Fronts on the Wintertime Atmospheric Boundary Layer: Their Sensitivity to SST Resolution Prescribed for Atmospheric Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: esoscale structures of the wintertime marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) as climatological imprints of oceanic fronts within the Kuroshio?Oyashio Extension (KOE) region east of Japan are investigated by taking advantage ...
Ocean Frontal Effects on the Vertical Development of Clouds over the Western North Pacific: In Situ and Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A suite of shipboard and satellite observations are analyzed and synthesized to investigate the three-dimensional structure of clouds and influences from sea surface temperature fronts over the western North Pacific. Sharp ...
