Atmospheric teleconnection influence on North American land surface phenology

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2018
Short-term forecasts of vegetation activity are currently not well constrained due largely to our lack of understanding of coupled climate-vegetation dynamics mediated by complex interactions between atmospheric teleconnection patterns.

NMHCs and halocarbons in Asian continental outflow during the Transport and Chemical Evolution over the Pacific (TRACE-P) Field Campaign: Comparison with PEM-West B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present an overview of the spatial distributions of nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) and halocarbons observed over the western north Pacific as part of the NASA GTE Transport and Chemical Evolution over the Pacific (TRACE‐P) airborne field campaign ...

Isotopic Tracers Suggest Limited Trans-Oceanic Movements and Regional Residency in North Pacific Blue Sharks (Prionace glauca)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Blue sharks (Prionace glauca) are globally distributed, large-bodied pelagic sharks that make extensive migrations throughout their range. In the North Pacific, mark-recapture studies have shown trans-Pacific migrations, but knowledge gaps in migration ...

Data Assimilation of Argos profiles in North-west Pacific Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Abstract. Based on a novel specification of the background error covariance applying to Argos profiles assimilation, an oceanographic three-dimensional variational (3DVAR) data assimilation scheme is set up in the Regional Oceanic Model system (ROMs).

Tropical–North Pacific Climate Linkages over the Past Four Centuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Analyses of instrumental data demonstrate robust linkages between decadal-scale North Pacific and tropical Indo-Pacific climatic variability. These linkages encompass common regime shifts, including the noteworthy 1976 transition in Pacific climate ...

Role of ocean evaporation in California droughts and floods

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Since winter 2011, a record‐breaking drought has occurred in California. Studies found that the drought is mainly caused by a persistent high‐pressure system off the U.S. West Coast, which is linked to Pacific sea surface temperature anomalies. The water

Influence of Wintertime Polar Vortex Variation on the Climate over the North Pacific during Late Winter and Spring

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
The effects of wintertime stratospheric polar vortex variation on the climate over the North Pacific Ocean during late winter and spring are analyzed using the National Centers for Environmental Predictions, version 2 (NCEP2) reanalysis dataset.

First occurrence of the non-native bryozoan Schizoporella japonica Ortmann (1890) in Western Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Schizoporella japonica Ortmann was described from Japan but was subsequently introduced on Pacific oysters to the Pacific coast of North America, where it is now well established. In this paper we record it for the first time in European waters.

Holocene Ecohydrological Variability on the East Coast of Kamchatka

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
The Late Glacial and Holocene climate of the western North Pacific is less studied than that of the eastern North Pacific. While it is well known that strong east-west gradients in the tropical Pacific Ocean influence terrestrial climate, we seek to ...

Analysis of longitudinal variations in North Pacific alkalinity to improve predictive algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The causes of natural variation in alkalinity in the North Pacific surface ocean need to be investigated to understand the carbon cycle and to improve predictive algorithms.
