Excitation of equatorial Kelvin and Yanai waves by tropical cyclones in an ocean general circulation model [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics, 2013
Tropical cyclones (TCs) actively contribute to the dynamics of Earth's coupled climate system. They influence oceanic mixing rates, upper-ocean heat content, and air–sea fluxes, with implications for atmosphere and ocean dynamics on multiple spatial and ...

Decadal variability of the interannual climate predictability associated with the Indo-Pacific oceanic channel dynamics in CCSM4

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2022
The lag correlations between the observed sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTA) in the southeastern tropical Indian Ocean in fall and those in the Pacific cold tongue at the one-year time lag are calculated in running windows of 7–11 years and are ...

A Pacific Ocean Legacy Embracing Tradition: Protecting 4 Million Square Kilometers of Pacific Waters by 2016 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ancient Polynesians used the sun, stars, and ocean swells to navigate the Pacific, the largest ocean on Earth with nearly half the world's marine waters. From west to east, they explored and settled a significant portion of the Pacific.

Influence of the Madden-Julian Oscillation on upper tropospheric humidity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Variations of upper tropospheric humidity (UTH) and cold cloud in the tropics reveal coherent changes that propagate eastward from the Indian Ocean into the Pacific. The coherence of UTH is high at periods of 30–90 days along the equator.

Corals and Reef‐Dwelling Fish Regulate Carbon Storage and Cycling Processes in Coral Reef Ecosystems

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots, yet their role in carbon storage and cycling remains poorly understood. Using field surveys and modeling in the South China Sea, we reveal the overlooked potential of carbon storage in reef ecosystems and how reef fish, corals, and surface sediment jointly shape reef carbon reservoirs.

Abundance, condition, and diet of juvenile Pacific ocean perch (Sebastes alutus) in the Aleutian Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
T he relative value of pelagic habitat for three size classes of juvenile Pacific ocean perch (Sebastes alutus) was investigated by comparing their abundance and condition in two areas of the Aleutian Islands. Diet, zooplankton biomass, and water column

New records of Praethecacineta halacari (Schulz) (Suctorea: Ciliophora) from Taiwan, Tanzania and Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The present study reports on a range extension of the suctorian species Praethecacineta halacari to the region of He-Ping-Dao, north-east of Taiwan (West Pacific Ocean), Matemwe, the east coast of Unguja, Zanzibar, Tanzania (West Indian Ocean) and Nova

Import Wheat Tenders and the Effects of the Russian Invasion

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk and volatility for many commodities escalated sharply following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, creating numerous uncertainties for trading firms and importers. The purpose of this study is to analyze the bidding behavior in Egyptian wheat import tenders in the pre‐ and post‐invasion periods.

Competing impacts of tropical Pacific and Atlantic on Southern Ocean inter-decadal variability

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
The observed Southern Ocean sea surface temperature (SST) has experienced prominent inter-decadal variability nearly in phase with the Inter-decadal Pacific Oscillation (IPO), but less associated with the Atlantic Multidecadal Variability (AMV ...

Global warming hiatus contributed to the increased occurrence of intense tropical cyclones in the coastal regions along East Asia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The recent global warming hiatus (GWH) was characterized by a La Niña–like cooling in the tropical Eastern Pacific accompanied with the Indian Ocean and the tropical Atlantic Ocean warming.
