Regional tropical rainfall shifts under global warming: an energetic perspective
Environmental Research: Climate, 2023 Future climate simulations feature pronounced spatial shifts in the structure of tropical rainfall. We apply a novel atmospheric energy flux analysis to diagnose late 21st century tropical rainfall shifts in a large ensemble of simulations of 21st ...

MMAS in Eastern Tropical Pacific Seascape [PDF]
Coastal Management, 2015 This article is part of a special issue that provides insight into global conservation science by analyzing a 5-year, $12.5 million global marine conservation science and policy program. In this article, we summarize the development of the program in Coiba Island in the Gulf of Chiriqui Panama, and the Galapagos islands of Ecuador, both part of the ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The tectonic closure of the Central American Seaway (CAS) during the mid‐Miocene to mid‐Pliocene (∼16–3 Ma BP) is thought of as a key interval for the onset of the present‐day tropical Pacific oxygen minimum zone (OMZ).

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 During 2020–2022, a consecutive two-year La Niña event occurred in the tropical Pacific. This work analyzes the evolution of atmospheric and oceanic anomalies in the equatorial Pacific between 2020 and 2022 to describe and illustrate the processes that ...

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

Coral reef resilience to thermal stress in the Eastern Tropical Pacific
Global Change Biology, 2020 Coral reefs worldwide are threatened by thermal stress caused by climate change. Especially devastating periods of coral loss frequently occur during El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events originating in the Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP).

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

Consequences of ocean scale hypoxia constrained habitat for tropical pelagic fishes [PDF]
, 2007 Large areas of cold hypoxic water occur as distinct strata in the eastern tropical Pacific and Atlantic oceans as a result of high productivity initiated by intense nutrient upwelling.
