Applications of Satellite-Derived Ocean Measurements to Tropical Cyclone Intensity Forecasting [PDF]

Oceanography, 2009
Sudden tropical cyclone (TC) intensification has been linked with high values of upper ocean heat content contained in mesoscale features, particularly warm ocean eddies, provided that atmospheric conditions are also favorable.

High-Resolution Global and Basin-Scale Ocean Analyses and Forecasts [PDF]

Oceanography, 2009
The feasibility of global ocean weather prediction was just emerging as the Global Ocean Data Assimilation Experiment (GODAE) began in 1997. Ocean weather includes phenomena such as meandering currents and fronts, eddies, the surface mixed layer and sea ...

Argo: The Challenge of Continuing 10 Years of Progress [PDF]

Oceanography, 2009
In only 10 years, the Argo Program has grown from an idea into a functioning global observing system for the subsurface ocean. More than 3000 Argo floats now cover the world’s ocean.
