SEASONAL SURFACE GEOSTROPHIC CURRENT IN ARAFURA-TIMOR WATERS

open access: yesJurnal Ilmu dan Teknologi Kelautan Tropis, 2013
Research on the seasonal geostrophic surface current during 2002-2011 in Arafura-Timor waters was conducted using satellite altimetry data. Those data were absolute dynamic topography and absolute geostrophic velocity data taken from Archiving Validation and Interpretation of Satellite Oceanographic data (AVISO).

Examining the Accuracy of GlobCurrent Upper Ocean Velocity Data Products on the Northwestern Atlantic Shelf

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
This study provides a regional coastal ocean assessment of global upper ocean current data developed by the GlobCurrent (GC) project. These gridded data synthesize multiple satellite altimeter and wind model inputs to estimate both Geostrophic and Ekman ...

Turbulent snow transport and accumulation: New reduced‐order models and diagnostics

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Our new reduced‐order models of snow particle transport provide high‐fidelity calculations of snow accumulation in turbulent flows at significantly reduced computational costs. Additional accumulation diagnostics from the reduced‐order model predict complex patterns of particle concentration in turbulent boundary layers via coherent flow structures in ...

On the role of onshore geostrophic flow on larval retention in a permanent upwelling zone along north-central Chile

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The Humboldt Archipelago (HAp), located off north-central Chile (~28° - 33° S) is one of the most productive marine zones of the Humboldt Current System (HCS).

Recent wind driven high sea ice area export in the Fram Strait contributes to Arctic sea ice decline [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2011
Arctic sea ice area has been decreasing for the past two decades. Apart from melting, the southward drift through Fram Strait is the main ice loss mechanism. We present high resolution sea ice drift data across 79° N from 2004 to 2010.

Quantification of the extremely intensified East Korea Warm Current in the summer of 2021: offshore and coastal variabilities

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
In this study, we investigate the record-breaking intensification and abrupt weakening of the East Korea Warm Current (EKWC) in the summer of 2021. We analyzed the ocean data assimilation products resolving this event to examine the association between ...

Present and future downslope windstorms in the Scandinavian Mountains from a kilometre‐scale climate model

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Kilometre‐scale climate simulations for Scandinavia indicate the importance of high resolution for reproducing downslope windstorms (DWs). Scandinavian DWs on average induce a limited local warming but with large variability due to the region's complex orography.

River discharge impacts coastal southeastern tropical Atlantic sea surface temperature and circulation: a model-based analysis [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science
The southeastern tropical Atlantic (SETA) coastal region sustains highly productive fisheries and marine ecosystems, thus having immeasurable socio-economic importance for southwestern African coastal countries.
