Reduced North Pacific Deep Water formation across the Northern Hemisphere Glaciation [PDF]

Nature Communications
Today, deep waters do not form in the northern high latitudes of the Pacific Ocean, but this may not have been the case during the Pliocene. Evidence suggests there was a Pacific Meridional Overturning Circulation during the warm Late Pliocene, similar ...

Emergence of the North Pacific heat storage pattern delayed by decadal wind-driven redistribution [PDF]

Nature Communications
Storage of anthropogenic heat in the oceans is spatially inhomogeneous, impacting regional climates and human societies. Climate models project enhanced heat storage in the mid-latitude North Pacific (MNP) and much weaker storage in the tropical Pacific.

A Contrast of the Monsoon–Tropical Cyclone Relationship between the Western and Eastern North Pacific

Atmosphere, 2022
The monsoon and tropical cyclone (TC) are principal components of global climate variability. The relationship between the monsoon intensity and the TC genesis frequency (TCGF) in different major monsoon regions has not been fully studied.

Long‐Term Variability in Pliocene North Pacific Ocean Export Production and Its Implications for Ocean Circulation in a Warmer World

AGU Advances, 2023
Unlike in the high‐latitude North Atlantic, no deep water is formed in the modern subarctic North Pacific. It has previously been suggested that during climate states different from today, this dichotomy did not endure, and the formation of North Pacific

Impacts of the North Atlantic biases on the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere over the extratropical North Pacific

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023
The winter upper troposphere/lower stratosphere temperature/vertical motion response over the extratropical North Pacific induced by North Atlantic changes is not well understood.

Paleoclimate evolution of the North Pacific Ocean during the late Quaternary: Progress and challenges

Geosystems and Geoenvironment, 2023
High- and low-latitude climatic processes in the North Pacific Ocean are important components of the global climate system. For example, the interplay among North Pacific atmospheric circulation, ocean circulation, and biological productivity affects ...

Climate Variability Patterns and Their Ecological Effects on Ecosystems in the Northwestern North Pacific

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Climate-induced ecosystem variability is an increasing concern in recent years. Integrated researches in the northeastern North Pacific have proved the ecological importance of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), North Pacific Gyre Oscillation (NPGO),

Seasonal cycles of surface layer salinity in the Pacific Ocean [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2010
The seasonal variability of surface layer salinity (SLS) is examined in the Pacific Ocean between 40° S and 60° N using a variety of data sources. Significant seasonal cycles were found in 5 regions: 1) The western North Pacific, 2) The northeastern ...

Possible Impact of Boreal Winter Siberian High on ENSO Development in the Following Year

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Siberian High (SH) is the dominant pressure system located in the mid-high latitudes of Eurasia during boreal wintertime. This study reveals a triggering impact of SH variation in preceding winter on the following ENSO events, and gives a possible ...

Deep water pathways in the North Pacific Ocean revealed by Lagrangian particle tracking

Scientific Reports, 2022
Lagrangian particle tracking experiments are conducted to investigate the pathways of deep water in the North Pacific Ocean. The flow field is taken from a state-of-the-art deep circulation simulation.
