Satellite observations of mesoscale eddies in the Gulfs of Tehuantepec and Papagayo (Eastern Tropical Pacific)

Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2004
SeaWiFS high-resolution ocean-color images and AVHRR sea-surface temperature were obtained for the period from November 1998 to March 1999. Generation of mesoscale eddies was observed for the region between the Gulf of Tehuantepec and the Gulf of Papagayo (Tropical Pacific Ocean).

Local Variation in the Internesting Behavior of Green Turtles in the Gulf of Papagayo, Costa Rica

Chelonian Conservation and Biology, 2019
Abstract Marine turtles often conduct extensive migrations from foraging to breeding habitats. Turtles may spend several months in these breeding habitats, while periodically taking brief excursion...

Inertial wind path and sea surface temperature patterns near the Gulf of Tehuantepec and Gulf of Papagayo

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1988
During the northern hemisphere winter the surface atmospheric pressure on the Gulf of Mexico side of Central America is often higher than that on the Pacific side. The resultant southward pressure gradient drives strong southward winds through a gap in the Sierra Madre mountain range at the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.

Upwelling off the Gulfs of Panama and Papagayo in the tropical Pacific during March 1985

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1988
Satellite measurements of sea surface temperatures (SST) were made in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean during March 1985. Unusually persistent upwelling was observed southwest of the Gulf of Panama and Gulf of Papagayo from March 7 to 22. The SST was depressed by 6° to 10°C relative to the surrounding waters.

A Numerical Case Study of the Papagayo Jet Effect on East Pacific Easterly Wave Development

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres
Abstract This study investigates the development of an east Pacific easterly wave (EW) event in August 2019 and the effect of the Papagayo jet on its evolution. Convective‐permitting numerical simulations were conducted. These included a control experiment and a Gap‐Filled experiment with a closed mountain gap near the Gulf of Papagayo, to test the ...
