Meridional SST gradient in the western North Pacific warm pool associated with typhoon generation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2008
We examined the sea surface temperature (SST) distribution in the western North Pacific warm pool when a typhoon is generated in northern summer. Analyzing satellite observation data revealed higher (lower) SST north (south) of the typhoon.

Shifts in Phytoplankton Community Structure Across an Anticyclonic Eddy Revealed From High Spectral Resolution Lidar Scattering Measurements

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Changes in airborne high spectral resolution lidar (HSRL) measurements of scattering, depolarization, and attenuation coincided with a shift in phytoplankton community composition across an anticyclonic eddy in the North Atlantic. We normalized the total

Modeled Oceanic Response and Sea Surface Cooling to Typhoon Kai-Tak

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2010
An ocean response to typhoon Kai-Tak is simulated using an accurate fourth-order, basin-scale ocean model. The surface winds of typhoon Kai-Tak were obtained from QuikSCAT satellite images blended with the ECMWF wind fields.

Air–Sea Interaction in the Central Mediterranean Sea: Assessment of Reanalysis and Satellite Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Air–sea heat fluxes are essential climate variables, required for understanding air–sea interactions, local, regional and global climate, the hydrological cycle and atmospheric and oceanic circulation.

Analysis of a Sea Fog Episode at King George Island, Antarctica

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
In this study, a marine fog episode at King George Island off the Antarctic Peninsula from 26−30 January 2017 was investigated using surface observations, upper-air soundings, and re-analysis data as well as the air mass backward trajectory method.

Influence of Wave State and Sea Spray on the Roughness Length: Feedback on Medicanes

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
Occasionally, storms that share many features with tropical cyclones, including the presence of a quasi-circular “eye” a warm core and strong winds, are observed in the Mediterranean.

High moisture confluence in Japan Sea polar air mass convergence zone captured by hourly radiosonde launches from a ship

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Some of the heaviest snowfalls in urban areas in the world occur in Japan, particularly in regions that face the Japan Sea. Many heavy snowfalls are produced by a Japan Sea polar air mass convergence zone (JPCZ), which is an atmospheric river-like cloud ...

Advances in the Estimation of Global Surface Net Heat Flux Based on Satellite Observation: J-OFURO3 V1.1

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The reliability of surface net heat flux data obtained from the latest satellite-based estimation [the third-generation Japanese Ocean Flux Data Sets with Use of Remote Sensing Observations (J-OFURO3, V1.1)] was investigated. Three metrics were utilized:

Air‐sea interaction between tropical cyclone Nari and Kuroshio

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2008
The air‐sea interaction between tropical cyclone Nari (Sep/6–16/2001) and Kuroshio is studied using satellite observations and an ocean model. Nari crossed the Kuroshio several times, which caused variations in typhoon intensity.

The Impact of Barrier Layers on Arabian Sea Surface Temperature Variability

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
Barrier layers (BLs) in the Arabian Sea may lead to increased mixed layer (ML) warming or cooling relative to non‐BL conditions, depending on differences in ML properties and atmospheric forcing.
