The East Asian monsoon (EAM) exhibits a robust annual cycle with significant interannual variability. Here, the authors find that the EAM annual cycle can be decomposed into the equinoctial and solstitial modes in the combined sea level pressure, 850-hPa

262 Voyages Beneath the Sea: a global assessment of macro- and megafaunal biodiversity and research effort at deep-sea hydrothermal vents [PDF]
For over 40 years, hydrothermal vents and the communities that thrive on them have been a source of profound discovery for deep-sea ecologists. These ecosystems are found throughout the world on active plate margins as well as other geologically active ...

Geological and geophysical signatures of the East Pacific Rise 8°–10°N
The East Pacific Rise (EPR) 8°–10°N is an archetype for fast-spreading mid-ocean ridge (MOR), and has been one of the most comprehensively studied MOR sections for over four decades.

Atmospheric torques and Earth's rotation: what drove the millisecond-level length-of-day response to the 2015–2016 El Niño? [PDF]
El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events are classically associated with a significant increase in the length of day (LOD), with positive mountain torques arising from an east–west pressure dipole in the Pacific driving a rise of atmospheric angular

ODP drilling at the East Pacific Rise
Understanding the origin of the ocean crust by scientific drilling at the axes of mid‐ocean ridges is a high priority in the Earth science community, as reflected in the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Long Range Plan, the Joint Oceanographic Institutions for Deep Earth Sampling (JOIDES) Lithosphere Panel's White Paper, and several reports of the Ridge ...

Hydrothermal sediments record changes in deep water oxygen content in the SE Pacific
The distribution of redox?sensitive metals in sediments is potentially a proxy for past ocean ventilation and productivity, but deconvolving these two major controls has proved difficult to date.

Active rifting and crustal thinning along the Rivera-Cocos plate boundary as inferred from Mantle Bouguer gravity anomalies [PDF]
The El Gordo graben lies within the oceanic lithosphere west of the Middle America Trench at 18.15°N, 104.7°W. This graben has been proposed to mark the southwest tip of an active zone of extension located between the Rivera and Cocos plates. The results
