Annual amphidromes: a common feature in the ocean? [PDF]
The scientific term "amphidrome" is usually associated with tides in oceanography. The dozen tidal amphidromes observed in the ocean are critical points that determine the fundamental pattern of the global tidal system.

Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation slowdown cooled the subtropical ocean [PDF]
Observations show that the upper 2 km of the subtropical North Atlantic Ocean cooled throughout 2010 and remained cold until at least December 2011. We show that these cold anomalies are partly driven by anomalous air-sea exchange during the cold winters

The Challenge of Sustaining Ocean Observations
Sustained ocean observations benefit many users and societal goals but could benefit many more. Such information is critical for using ocean resources responsibly and sustainably as the ocean becomes increasingly important to society.

The Potential Economic Benefits of Integrated and Sustainable Ocean Observation Systems: The Southeast Atlantic Region [PDF]
The South East Atlantic Coastal Ocean Observing System (SEACOOS) collects, manages and disseminates coastal oceanic and atmospheric observation information along the Atlantic coast of the southeastern United States.

Observing Ocean Boundary Currents: Lessons Learned from Six Regions with Mature Observational and Modeling Systems [PDF]
Ocean boundary currents are complex and highly variable systems that play key roles in connecting the open and coastal ocean through cross-slope circulation and upwelling of nutrient-rich water.

Southern ocean circulation [PDF]
The Discovery Investigations of the 1930s provided a compelling description of the main elements of the Southern Ocean circulation. Over the intervening years, this has been extended to include ideas on ocean dynamics based on physical principles. In the

The Determination Of Ocean Correlation Scales Using Argo Float Data
The scales over which ocean properties vary play a critical role in the assimilation of ocean data. Previous studies do not explore these scales in great detail and pre-Argo observations limited investigations to the upper ocean (<500m). In this study
