New distribution record of Megalops atlanticus Valenciennes, 1847 (Elopiformes, Megalopidae) in El Salvador, Eastern Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2018
A new geographical distribution record of an Atlantic Ocean species, Megalops atlanticus Valenciennes, 1847, is reported on the Tropical Eastern Pacific Ocean based on 2 incidental captures by local fishermen at the Acajutla city, El Salvador.

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 ...

Consequences of ocean scale hypoxia constrained habitat for tropical pelagic fishes [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

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 ...

Atlantic Ocean Heat Transport Enabled by Indo-Pacific Heat Uptake and Mixing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The ocean transports vast amounts of heat around the planet, helping to regulate regional climate. One important component of this heat transport is the movement of warm water from equatorial regions toward the poles, with colder water flowing in return.

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

Distribution of ommastrephid paralarvae in the eastern Tropical Pacific

open access: yesFishery 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.

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

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 ...
