ENSO and Teleconnections Observed Using MISR Cloud Height Anomalies [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2018
Cloud-top height is an important climate variable due to its greenhouse effect, as well as being a useful indicator of circulation patterns. We use effective height anomalies from stereo retrievals at a horizontal resolution of 1.1 km after subtracting regional and seasonal mean values.

Signatures of salinity variability in tropical Pacific Ocean dynamic height anomalies [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2002
The vertical variability of the salinity field, with emphasis on interannual timescales, is examined within the tropical Pacific Ocean (10°N–10°S) using a compilation of the conductivity‐temperature‐depth (CTD) casts for the period 1975–1998. Compared to the vertical dependence of temperature that exhibits a systematic maximum variability at the depth ...

Village-level climate and weather variability, mediated by village-level crop yield, is associated with linear growth in children in Uganda

BMJ Global Health, 2020
Introduction To investigate total annual precipitation, precipitation anomaly and aridity index in relation to linear growth in children under 5 in Uganda and quantify the mediating role of crop yield.Methods We analysed data of 5219 children under 5 ...

Topographic features around Syowa Station as viewed from the gravity measurements -Some implications on the bedrock topography under the ice sheet-

Antarctic Record, 1984
The coefficients of the correlation between the reduced gravity anomaly and the bedrock height were calculated using gravity data in the Lutzow-Holm Bay region and the Mizuho Plateau, East Antarctica.

Extreme Heights of 15 January 2022 Tonga Volcanic Plume and Its Initial Evolution Inferred from COSMIC-2 RO Measurements

Atmosphere, 2023
The Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha’apai underwater volcano (20.57° S, 175.38° W) violently erupted on 15 January 2022. The volcanic cloud’s top height and initial evolution are delineated by using the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and

Atmospheric teleconnection mechanisms of extratropical North Atlantic SST influence on Sahel rainfall [PDF]

, 2014
Extratropical North Atlantic cooling has been tied to droughts over the Sahel in both paleoclimate observations and modeling studies. This study, which uses an atmospheric general circulation model (GCM) coupled to a slab ocean model that simulates this ...

On the estimation of physical height changes using GRACE satellite mission data – A case study of Central Europe

Geodesy and Cartography, 2017
The dedicated gravity satellite missions, in particular the GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) mission launched in 2002, provide unique data for studying temporal variations of mass distribution in the Earth’s system, and thereby, the ...

The Storm-Track Response to Idealized SST Perturbations in an Aquaplanet GCM [PDF]

, 2008
The tropospheric response to midlatitude SST anomalies has been investigated through a series of aquaplanet simulations using a high-resolution version of the Hadley Centre atmosphere model (HadAM3) under perpetual equinox conditions.

Reconstruction of ocean temperature and salinity profiles in the Northern South China Sea using satellite observations

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Based on historical temperature and salinity (T–S) profiles, the correlation between the sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly, sea surface dynamic height (SSH) anomaly, and temperature profile anomaly is constructed by regression analysis.
