Surface Heat Fluxes Using Satellite Observations: A Case Study in the Northwest Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite-observed surface-level meteorological parameters are used to derive 10-day mean surface heat fluxes of solar, longwave, sensible, and latent heat fluxes in the northwest Pacific. Cloud amount in tenths were taken ...
Drift in Salinity Data from Argo Profiling Floats in the Sea of Japan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n drift analysis of salinity sensors, one major problem is the difficulty in delineating sensor drift from water mass changes. In the present study, a new method is proposed for finding sensor drift that is free from water ...
XBT Fall Rate in Waters of Extreme Temperature: A Case Study in the Antarctic Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: XBT fall-rate variation in waters of extreme temperature and the resulting depth error has been addressed using controlled XBT?CTD datasets collected from two cruises in the Southern Ocean. Mean depth errors deduced from ...
Seasonal Variability of the Observed Barrier Layer in the Arabian Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The formation mechanisms of the barrier layer (BL) and its seasonal variability in the Arabian Sea (AS) are studied using a comprehensive dataset of temperature and salinity profiles from Argo and other archives for the ...
