Abstract: AbstractBoth surface and subsurface salinity variability associated with positive Indian Ocean dipole (pIOD) events and its impacts on the sea surface temperature (SST) evolution are investigated through analysis of ...

Abstract: Using various observational data, the seasonal cycle of the tropical Pacific is investigated, suggesting the existence of an ?annual El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO).? A positive sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) ...

Abstract: Using an ocean general circulation model (OGCM), seasonal variation of the Seychelles Dome (SD) is investigated for the first time. The SD is an oceanic thermal dome located in the southwestern Indian Ocean, and its influence ...

Abstract: Using an ocean?atmosphere coupled general circulation model, air?sea interaction processes associated with the Atlantic meridional mode are investigated from a new viewpoint of its link with the Guinea Dome in the northern ...

Abstract: Using outputs from the ?twentieth-century climate in coupled models? (20c3m) control run of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, phase 3 (CMIP3), coupled GCMs, the authors have examined how seasonal variations of the ...

Abstract: he sea surface temperature (SST) in the western Arabian Sea upwelling region is known to influence the amount of precipitation associated with the Indian summer monsoon. Thus, understanding what determines the SST in this ...

Abstract: he seasonal and interannual variations of the sea surface temperature (SST) above the Seychelles Dome (SD) are investigated using outputs from an OGCM. The SST warms from August to April and cools from May to July. The ...

Abstract: sing observational data and outputs from an ocean general circulation model, the growth and decay of the South Atlantic subtropical dipole (SASD) are studied. The SASD is the most dominant mode of interannual variability ...

Abstract: Using a high-resolution OGCM result, multiscale variations of the Mindanao Dome (MD) are discussed. The MD is generated by local Ekman upwelling as the positive curl of the Asian winter monsoon increases over the western ...
