RISSurface Heat Flux Variations across the Kuroshio Extension as Observed by Surface Flux Buoys
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wintertime sea surface heat flux variability across the Kuroshio Extension (KE) front is analyzed using data from the Kuroshio Extension Observatory (KEO) buoy in the Kuroshio recirculation gyre south of the KE front and ...
Cloud Response to the Meandering Kuroshio Extension Front
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: unique set of observations on board research vessel (R/V) Mirai in April 2010 captured a striking cloud hole over a cold meander of the Kuroshio Extension (KE) east of Japan as corroborated by atmospheric soundings, ...
Intercomparison of Various Surface Latent Heat Flux Fields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Japanese Ocean Flux Data Sets with use of Remote Sensing Observations (J-OFURO) latent heat flux field is compared with the Hamburg Ocean?Atmosphere Parameters and Fluxes from Satellite Data (HOAPS), the Goddard ...
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 ...
Uncertainties in Ocean Latent Heat Flux Variations over Recent Decades in Satellite-Based Estimates and Reduced Observation Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Four state-of-the-art satellite-based estimates of ocean surface latent heat fluxes (LHFs) extending over three decades are analyzed, focusing on the interannual variability and trends of near-global averages and regional ...
