Bacteria as Passive Passengers in the Equatorial Pacific Biological Carbon Pump

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Bacteria are important agents modulating the efficiency of the ocean's biological carbon pump (BCP). The long‐standing view considers bacteria as degraders of sinking particulate organic carbon (POC), yet underappreciates their contribution to carbon export.

The post‐2002 global surface warming slowdown caused by the subtropical Southern Ocean heating acceleration

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2017
The warming rate of global mean surface temperature slowed down during 1998–2012. Previous studies pointed out role of increasing ocean heat uptake during this global warming slowdown, but its mechanism remains under discussion. Our numerical simulations,

Ekman transport divergence in the equatorial Atlantic Ocean

open access: yes, 2010
I Encuentro de la Oceanografía Física Española (EOF), 13-15 de octubre 2010, Barcelona We use wind stress data, as obtained from the QuikSCAT/SeaWinds Scatterometer, to calculate the monthly Ekman meridional transports across 3.75°N and 3.75°S during a 10 years period, from 1999 to 2009.

Blocked Coastal Propagation Inhibits Model Representation of Southeast United States Coastal Sea Level Variability

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Previous studies indicate that climate models misrepresent southeast United States coastal sea level variability but do not propose a definitive mechanistic explanation. Here, by isolating a mode of variability responsible for the majority of observed nonseasonal United States East Coast (USEC) sea level variance and comparing its ...

Future changes in the influence of the Southern Annular Mode on South Pacific chlorophyll-a in the CESM2 large ensemble

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
The Southern Annular Mode (SAM) is the leading mode of atmospheric variability in the Southern Hemisphere, exerting a significant influence on ocean circulation and marine productivity.

Toroidal and poloidal energy in rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection

open access: yes, 2014
We consider rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection of a fluid with a Prandtl number of $Pr = 0.8$ in a cylindrical cell with an aspect ratio $\Gamma = 1/2$. Direct numerical simulations were performed for the Rayleigh number range $10^5 \leq Ra \leq 10^9$

Post‐Hiatus Enhancement of ENSO Forecast Skill via Salinity‐Mediated Indo‐Pacific Inter‐Basin Coupling

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) predictability has notably declined since the 1998–2013 global warming hiatus, challenging conventional sea surface temperature (SST)‐based forecast models. We identify sea surface salinity (SSS) as a critical yet underappreciated driver for restoring ENSO forecast skill post‐hiatus.

A Dynamical Model of the Tropical Pacific Zonal SST Gradient Change Under Global Warming

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract How the tropical Pacific mean‐state sea surface temperature (SST) responds to global warming is an ongoing heated debate, as climate models are flawed and their projections are opposite to the observed zonal gradient strengthening. Here, we build a dynamical tropical Pacific air–sea coupled model that incorporates three key mechanisms of the ...
