The Influence of Ekman Transport on Zooplankton Biomass Variability off Southern Brazil [PDF]

Journal of Plankton Research, 2001
Cross- and long-shelf Ekman transport components were correlated with the variability of zooplankton biomass from 1977 to 1990 off the southern Brazilian coast (27°S to 35°S and 46°W to 54°W). During warm months the dominant cross-shelf Ekman transport was oriented offshore, where an increase in zooplankton biomass occurred with intervals of 2-3 months.

Internal Tide Displacements Enhance Surface‐Interior Heat Exchange in the Indonesian Seas

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Sea surface temperature (SST) in the Indonesian Seas drives atmospheric deep convection, influencing regional and global climate. Yet, the processes controlling SST in this region remain poorly understood. Using a high‐resolution regional model that explicitly resolves internal tides, we show that tidal displacements lift cold thermocline ...

ON THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF EKMAN TRANSPORT AND PUMPING TO THE DYNAMICS OF COASTAL UPWELLING IN THE SOUTH-EAST PACIFIC

Gayana, 2004
We investigate the oceanic circulation in the South-East Pacific (SEP) and Peru-Chile coastal upwelling, using satellite data and a medium resolution, eddy permitting regional model. The data consist in ERS 1 and 2 derived winds and AVHRR SST.

Quantifying environmental effects on the recruitment of the Brazilian sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis), 1977-1993

Scientia Marina, 2004
The recruitment process for Brazilian sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis) from 1977 to 1993 was investigated by taking into account the effects of spawning stock biomass (SSB), the intensity of the wind and the sea surface temperature (SST).

A Strictly Geostrophic Product of Sea‐Surface Velocities From the SWOT Fast‐Sampling Phase

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract While geostrophy remains the simplest and most practical balance to extract velocity information from sea‐surface height anomaly (SSHa), confusions remain within the oceanographic community to what extent this balance can be applied to altimetric observations with the launch of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite. Given the

Atmosphere drives recent interannual variability of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation at 26.5°N [PDF]

, 2013
The RAPID-MOCHA array has observed the Atlantic Meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) at 26.5°N since 2004. During 2009/2010, there was a transient 30% weakening of the AMOC driven by anomalies in geostrophic and Ekman transports.

Double‐ITCZ Bias Reduces Southern Hemisphere Influence on Tropics via Oceanic Pathways

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Many coupled climate models exhibit an Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) south of the Equator in the annual‐mean tropical Pacific that is more pronounced than observed. This bias impacts winds, wind‐driven ocean circulation, including the meridional subtropical cells, and the zonal distribution of waters supplying the equatorial ...

Solar‐Cycle Modulation of Subsurface Ocean Memory via the North Pacific Eastern Subtropical Mode Water

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract The North Pacific eastern subtropical mode water (NPESTMW) connects the subtropics and tropics, influencing climate variability on interannual to decadal timescales. Using eight decades of ocean reanalysis, we show that the 11‐year solar‐cycle robustly modulates NPESTMW volume. NPESTMW formation is suppressed 1–2 years after solar maxima: high

Transport phenomena in rotating turbulence [PDF]

, 2018
The role of rotation on turbulence and some of its transport properties will be reviewed with emphasis on two specific cases: statistically steady or decaying rotating turbulence and rotating thermally driven turbulence.
