Effect of SST in the Northwest Indian Ocean on Synoptic Eddies over the South China Sea-Philippine Sea in June

Atmosphere, 2022
Synoptic eddies (with a period of two to eight days) are active in the South China Sea-Philippine Sea (SCS-PS) and control weather variations. In addition, the intensity and frequency of synoptic eddies may change along with variations in sea surface ...

Different Pacific Ocean Warming Decaying Types and Northwest Pacific Tropical Cyclone Activity

Journal of Climate, 2013
AbstractThis study focuses on statistical analysis of anomalous tropical cyclone (TC) activities and the physical mechanisms behind these anomalies. Different patterns of decaying of the warm sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) over the equatorial central-eastern Pacific are categorized into three types: eastern Pacific warming decaying to La Niña ...

Submesoscale transition from geostrophic flows to internal waves in the northwestern Pacific upper ocean

Nature Communications, 2017
Satellite altimeters resolution poorly capture mesoscale signals in the upper ocean. Here, the authors analyse shipboard Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler measurements from the northwest Pacific, and show that balanced geostrophic flows and unbalanced ...

The Physical Mechanisms Behind the Change in the Precipitation Recycling Rate in the Mid- and Lower Reaches of the Yangtze River

Frontiers in Physics, 2021
The precipitation recycling rate (PRR) is an important index when trying to understand the physical mechanisms behind the effects of different sources of water vapor on regional precipitation.

Sea Beam Survey of an Active Strike-Slip Fault: The San Clemente Fault in the California Continental Borderland [PDF]

, 1989
The San Clemente fault, located in the California Continental Borderland, is an active, northwest trending, right-lateral, wrench fault. Sea Beam data are used to map the major tectonic landforms associated with active submarine faulting in detail ...

Underwater Noise Measurements around a Tidal Turbine in a Busy Port Setting

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Acoustic emissions from current energy converters remain an environmental concern for regulators because of their potential effects on marine life and uncertainties about their effects stemming from a lack of sufficient observational data. Several recent

Future precipitation increase constrained by climatological pattern of cloud effect

Nature Communications, 2023
The fractional increase in global mean precipitation ( $$\triangle \bar{P}/\bar{P}$$ △ P ¯ / P ¯ ) is a first-order measure of the hydrological cycle intensification under anthropogenic warming.

Relationships Between Pacific and Atlantic Ocean Sea Surface Temperatures and U.S. Streamflow Variability

, 2006
An evaluation of Pacific and Atlantic Ocean sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and continental U.S. streamflow was performed to identify coupled regions of SST and continental U.S. streamflow variability.

Sources, fate, and pathways of Leeuwin Current water in the Indian Ocean and Great Australian Bight: A Lagrangian study in an eddy-resolving ocean model [PDF]

, 2016
The Leeuwin Current is the dominant circulation feature in the eastern Indian Ocean, transporting tropical and subtropical water southward. While it is known that the Leeuwin Current draws its water from a multitude of sources, existing Indian Ocean ...
