Abstract: Long-term annual means and intramonth variances have been calculated for air and sea surface temperature, specific humidity and surface wind components for most 5° ? 5° grids for the Pacific Ocean between 40°S and 30°N. ...

Abstract: The four components of the long-term annual mean net surface heating of the tropical Pacific Ocean between 30°N and 40°S are calculated and portrayed. These flux elements were derived by using the bulk formulas and about ...

Abstract: We evaluate the method of estimating sea surface velocities from sequences of AVHRR and CZCS images using the maximum cross-correlation (MCC) technique. A set of synthetic images is created by advecting an AVHRR-SST field ...
