Semiempirical Dissipation Source Functions for Ocean Waves. Part I: Definition, Calibration, and Validation [PDF]
, 2009 New parameterizations for the spectral dissipation of wind-generated waves are proposed. The rates of dissipation have no predetermined spectral shapes and are functions of the wave spectrum and wind speed and direction, in a way consistent with ...

Ocean Heat Content Increase of the Maritime Continent Since the 1990s
Geophysical Research LettersThe Maritime Continent (MC), a critical region for inter‐basin climate interaction, harbors the world's highest marine biodiversity. Ocean warming in the MC, although with notable impacts on regional climate and marine ecosystems, remains poorly ...

Intensification of Decadal Variability in Sea Surface Salinity in the Western Tropical Pacific
Geophysical Research LettersThe decadal variability of sea surface salinity (SSS) is crucial for the global water cycle and the climate system. Previous studies have indicated that the SSS in the western tropical Pacific (WTP) Ocean exhibits significant decadal variability, which ...

Declining oxygen in the global ocean and coastal waters
Science, 2018 Beneath the waves, oxygen disappears As plastic waste pollutes the oceans and fish stocks decline, unseen below the surface another problem grows: deoxygenation. Breitburg et al.

Quantifying the Role of Oceanic Feedbacks on ENSO Asymmetry
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 The role of oceanic feedbacks in determining the asymmetry of El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) magnitude, spatial structure, and duration is quantified on the basis of a novel temperature variance budget.

Barrier Layer Variability in the Central Equatorial Pacific Associated With ENSO Development
Geophysical Research LettersPrevious studies suggest that a thick barrier layer can strengthen surface warming during El Niño and vice versa for La Niña. Here we find barrier layer changes of up to 6 m in the central equatorial Pacific (CEP, 170°E−160°W, 5°S–5°N) in response to a 1°

Effects of Dipole Eddies on Acoustic Propagation in the Northeastern South China Sea
Ocean-Land-Atmosphere ResearchMesoscale eddies can greatly influence underwater acoustic propagation, which holds substantial academic and practical importance. The impacts of individual cyclonic eddies (CEs) or anticyclonic eddies (AEs) on acoustic propagation have been reported in ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 Model biases are substantial in ocean and coupled ocean‐atmosphere simulations in the tropical Pacific Ocean, including a too cold tongue and too diffuse thermocline. These biases can be partly attributed to vertical mixing parameterizations in which the
