IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 Abstract Arafura sea is located between the southern part of Papua Island and Aru Island. Previous studies on Sea Surface Temperature (SST) have described that the SST is strongly affected by the upwelling, but the effect of Ekman Mass Transport (EMT) and Ekman Pumping Velocity (EPV) has not yet been studied.

Ekman Transport as the Driver of Extreme Interannual Formation Rates of Eighteen Degree Water [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2022 AbstractIn the North Atlantic subtropical gyre, the Eighteen Degree Water (EDW) is a voluminous heat reservoir, submerged under a seasonal pycnocline that can be progressively removed through the winter, allowing EDW ventilation in the early spring. We target the EDW formation extremes, namely 2004–2005, 2009–2010, and 2012–2013 for the strong years ...

Influence of Stratification and Bottom Boundary Layer on the Classical Ekman Model
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 A depth understanding of the different processes of water movements produced by the wind surface stress yields a better description and improvement of the marine food chain and ecosystem. The classical Ekman model proposes a hypothetical ocean, excluding

Nonlocal and local wind forcing dependence of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation and its depth scale [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2022 We use wind sensitivity experiments to understand the wind forcing dependencies of the level of no motion as the depth of maximum overturning and the e-folding pycnocline scale, as well as their relationship to northward transport of the mid-depth ...

Upwelling di Laut Banda dan Pesisir Selatan Jawa serta Hubungannya dengan ENSO dan IOD
Omni-Akuatika, 2017 Upwelling events analysis in southern coast of Java and Banda sea were conducted. The events were identified by using satellite data i.e. wind surface, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and ocean color during period of 14 years (2002-2016) which calculated ...

Wind-Controlled Transport of Saltwater in the Southeastern Baltic Sea: A Model Study
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 We hypothesized that the saltwater transport in a system of the southeastern Baltic basins including the Gdańsk and Gotland deeps connected by the Hoburg Channel, is greatly controlled by wind forcing, which has a clear physical explanation.

Compensation between meridional flow components of the Atlantic MOC at 26° N [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2016 From ten years of observations of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC) at 26° N (2004–2014), we revisit the question of flow compensation between components of the circulation.

New Insights about Upwelling Trends off the Portuguese Coast: An ERA5 Dataset Analysis
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 In recent decades, several studies have highlighted the importance of the temporal and spatial structure of upwelling in defining the high levels of productivity of coastal upwelling systems. This work intends to assess the temporal and spatial trends of

Decadal Evolution of Ocean Thermal Anomalies in the North Atlantic: The Effects of Ekman, Overturning, and Horizontal Transport [PDF]
, 2014 Basin-scale thermal anomalies in the North Atlantic, extending to depths of 1–2 km, are more pronounced than the background warming over the last 60 years.
