Trends and decadal oscillations of oxygen and nutrients at 50 to 300 m depth in the equatorial and North Pacific [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2020
A strong oxygen-deficient layer is located in the upper layers of the tropical Pacific Ocean and deeper in the North Pacific. Processes related to climate change (upper-ocean warming, reduced ventilation) are expected to change ocean oxygen and nutrient ...

Triple-dip La Niña in 2020–23: understanding the role of the annual cycle in tropical Pacific SST

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
The triple-dip La Niña in 2020–23 is characterized by persisting southeasterly wind anomalies over the tropical central and eastern Pacific. Our results show that the wind anomalies are associated with the anomalously negative phase of the first two ...

Coherent amplification of the Okhotsk high, Korean trough, and northwestern Pacific subtropical high during heavy rainfall over Japan in August 2021

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023
In August 2021, rain front stagnation in Japan resulted in prolonged and disastrous rainfall across the entire country. During the heavy rainfall period, the large-scale atmospheric field over the East Asian–western North Pacific region was characterized

Roles of the Indo-Pacific subsurface Kelvin waves and volume transport in prolonging the triple-dip 2020–2023 La Niña

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
The rare triple-dip 2020–2023 La Niña event has resulted in a series of extreme climate events across the globe. Here, we reveal the role of tropical Indo-Pacific oceanic interactions in driving the first triple-dip La Niña of the twenty-first century ...

A change in the relationship between tropical central Pacific SST variability and the extratropical atmosphere around 1990

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2012
A newly released reanalysis dataset covering the period 1979–2009 is analyzed to show that the sea surface temperature (SST) variability in the tropical central Pacific is more closely related to the SST variability in the tropical eastern Pacific before

Large‐scale connectivity, cryptic population structure, and relatedness in Eastern Pacific Olive ridley sea turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Endangered species are grouped into genetically discrete populations to direct conservation efforts. Mitochondrial control region (mtCR) haplotypes are used to elucidate deep divergences between populations, as compared to nuclear microsatellites that ...

The Eastern Tropical Pacific Marine Corridor (CMAR): The Emergence of a Voluntary Regional Cooperation Mechanism for the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biodiversity Within a Fragmented Regional Ocean Governance Landscape

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The San Jose Declaration formally established the Eastern Tropical Pacific Marine Corridor (CMAR) in 2004, a voluntary regional cooperation mechanism created by the coastal States of Ecuador, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Panama in response to anthropogenic ...

Extreme heatwave over Eastern China in summer 2022: the role of three oceans and local soil moisture feedback

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
Eastern China experienced persistent regional extreme heatwaves in the summer of 2022, with disparate spatial features and formation mechanisms in different months. We quantitatively assessed the relative contributions of three oceans, i.e.
