Seasonal and Interannual Variability of the Indo-Pacific Warm Pool and its Associated Climate Factors Based on Remote Sensing

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
With satellite observed Sea Surface Temperature (SST) accumulated for multiple decades, multi-time scale variabilities of the Indo-Pacific Warm Pool are examined and contrasted in this study by separating it into the Indian Ocean sector and the Pacific ...

Evaluating the Joint Effect of Tropical and Extratropical Pacific Initial Errors on Two Types of El Niño Prediction Using Particle Filter Approach

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The accuracy of different types of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) predictions is sensitive to initial errors in different key areas of the Pacific Ocean.

Ocean temperature and salinity components of the Madden-Julian oscillation observed by Argo floats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
New diagnostics of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) cycle in ocean temperature and, for the first time, salinity are presented. The MJO composites are based on 4 years of gridded Argo float data from 2003 to 2006, and extend from the surface to 1,400 ...

Interdecadal variability of tropical cyclone genesis frequency in western North Pacific and South Pacific ocean basins

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Variability of tropical cyclone (TC) genesis frequency in the western North Pacific and South Pacific ocean basins in the interdecadal scale is studied. It is demonstrated that the TC genesis frequency in these ocean basins experienced an abrupt decrease

Geostationary satellite reveals increasing marine isoprene emissions in the center of the equatorial Pacific Ocean

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2022
Isoprene is the most abundant non-methane biogenic volatile organic compound in the Earth’s atmosphere and has the potential to influence photochemistry in the remote ocean–atmosphere.

Tracking ocean heat uptake during the surface warming hiatus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ocean heat uptake is observed to penetrate deep into the Atlantic and Southern Oceans during the recent hiatus of global warming. Here we show that the deep heat penetration in these two basins is not unique to the hiatus but is characteristic of ...

Literature of the Pacific, Mainly Australian

open access: yeseTropic: electronic journal of studies in the tropics, 2013
This lecture is in some ways the ‘lost’ chapter of The Cambridge History of Australian Literature (2009), one eventually not written because the projected author could find not enough literary material even in that vast Pacific Ocean, or perhaps found ...

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

open access: yesGeosystems 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 ...

Johnston Atoll: reef fish hybrid zone between Hawaii and the equatorial Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Johnston Atoll is isolated in the Central Pacific Ocean (16°45′ N 169°31′ W) about 1287 km (800 miles) southwest of Honolulu, Hawaii and 1440 km (900 miles) north of the equatorial Line Islands, Kiribati.

Atlantic Ocean Heat Transport Enabled by Indo-Pacific Heat Uptake and Mixing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The ocean transports vast amounts of heat around the planet, helping to regulate regional climate. One important component of this heat transport is the movement of warm water from equatorial regions toward the poles, with colder water flowing in return.
