Ventilation of a Monsoon‐Dominated Ocean: Subduction and Obduction in the North Indian Ocean [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2018
AbstractBased on the characteristics of oceanic circulation in a monsoon‐dominated ocean, a new framework of annual ventilation, including subduction and obduction, is postulated and applied to the North Indian Ocean based on both SODA and GODAS. It is revealed that besides the winter season, ventilation can also occur in summer.

Modulation of Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation on the Interdecadal Variation of South Asian High and Somali Jet in Summer

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
As two important components of the Asian summer monsoon system, the intensities of South Asian High (SAH) and Somali jet (SMJ) in summer exhibit both interannual and decadal variabilities.

Tropical Cyclones of the North Indian Ocean

, 1973
Abstract : Photographs from polar-orbiting meteorological satellites were used in this study to obtain the frequency and tracks of depressions, storms, and hurricanes in the North Indian Ocean from November 1966 through December 1970 plus October 1971.

Drivers and characteristics of the Indo-western Pacific Ocean capacitor

Frontiers in Climate, 2022
Coherently coupled ocean-atmosphere variability of the tropical Indo-Pacific Oceans gives rise to the predictability of Asian summer climate. Recent advances in Indo-western Pacific Ocean capacitor (IPOC) theory and the relationship with El Niño-Southern

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Closure of the Global Overturning Circulation Through the Indian, Pacific, and Southern Oceans: Schematics and Transports [PDF]

Oceanography, 2013
The overturning pathways for the surface-ventilated North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) and Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) and the diffusively formed Indian Deep Water (IDW) and Pacific Deep Water (PDW) are intertwined.

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over
