Local environmental conditions related to seasonal tropical cyclone activity in the Northeast Pacific basin [PDF]

, 2000
Tropical cyclone formation in the NE Pacific Ocean is poorly understood. We show that by dividing the NE Pacific Ocean into two regions, east and west of 116 degreesW, our understanding is enhanced in terms of which climatological factors are involved ...

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 ...

Tropical–North Pacific Climate Linkages over the Past Four Centuries [PDF]

, 2005
Analyses of instrumental data demonstrate robust linkages between decadal-scale North Pacific and tropical Indo-Pacific climatic variability. These linkages encompass common regime shifts, including the noteworthy 1976 transition in Pacific climate ...

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 ...

Distribution of Idanthyrsus cretus(Polychaeta:Sabellariidae) in the Tropical Eastern Pacific and application of PCR-RAPD for population analysis. [PDF]

, 2009
Sabellariid polychaetes, commonly known as honeycomb worms, are capable of forming large reef-like aggregations. One species, Idanthyrsus cretus, has recently been found in several localities during surveys of Las Perlas Archipelago, Pacific Panama ...

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

Progress 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

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

Environmental 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

Distribution of ommastrephid paralarvae in the eastern Tropical Pacific

Fishery Bulletin, 2013
Jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) and purpleback squid (Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis) (Teuthida: Ommastrephidae) are thought to spawn in the eastern tropical Pacific. We used 10 years of plankton tow and oceanographic data collected in this region to examine the reproductive habits of these 2 ecologically important squid.
