Circular Asymmetry of Ocean Mesoscale Eddy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Role of North Pacific Mixed Layer in the Response of SST Annual Cycle to Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he annual cycle of sea surface temperature (SST) in the North Pacific Ocean is examined in terms of its response to global warming based on climate model simulations from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project ...
Observable Large-Scale Impacts of Tropical Cyclones on the Subtropical Gyre
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Interdecadal Variability of the Eastward Current in the South China Sea Associated with the Summer Asian Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Based on the Simple Ocean Data Assimilation (SODA) dataset and three types of Sverdrup streamfunction, an interdecadal variability of the eastward current in the middle South China Sea (SCS) during summer is identified. ...
Response of a Preexisting Cyclonic Ocean Eddy to a Typhoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he three-dimensional responses of a cyclonic ocean eddy (COE) for 1?2 months following a typhoon were investigated using altimeter data and numerical experiments. Two significant features were found: 1) the cyclonic eddy ...
Using Satellite Ocean Color Data to Derive an Empirical Model for the Penetration Depth of Solar Radiation (Hp) in the Tropical Pacific Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: atellite-based ocean color measurements indicate clear evidence for bioclimate interactions in the tropical Pacific associated with El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Recent modeling studies have demonstrated that ocean ...
Winter Eddy Genesis in the Eastern South China Sea due to Orographic Wind Jets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Generation of mesoscale eddies in the eastern South China Sea (SCS) in winters during August 1999 to July 2002 is studied with a reduced-gravity model. It is found that the orographic wind jets associated with the northeast ...
Inner-Core Sea Surface Cooling Induced by a Tropical Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Tropical Cool-Skin and Warm-Layer Effects and Their Impact on Surface Heat Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Effects of Thermohaline Circulation on Wind-Driven Circulation in the South China Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he dynamic influence of thermohaline circulation on wind-driven circulation in the South China Sea (SCS) is studied using a simple reduced gravity model, in which the upwelling driven by mixing in the abyssal ocean is ...
