“Eddy Resolving” Observation of the North Pacific Subtropical Mode Water
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2011Abstract Hydrographic data obtained by high-resolution shipboard observations and Argo profiling floats have been analyzed to study the mesoscale structure and circulation of the North Pacific Subtropical Mode Water (STMW). The float data show that in the late winter of 2008, STMW having a temperature of approximately 18.8°, 17.7°, and ...

Insensitivity of subtropical mode water characteristics to meteorological fluctuations
Deep Sea Research and Oceanographic Abstracts, 1972Abstract A striking feature of subtropical mode water (‘18° water’ in the North Atlantic) is the lack of change in its temperature and salinity despite exposure to the atmosphere under varying winter conditions. A local, one-dimensional model is developed for the determination of mode water characteristics, which agrees well with observations for ...

Variability of subduction rates of the subtropical North Pacific mode waters
Chinese Journal of Oceanology and Limnology, 2011The climatology subduction rate for the entire Pacific is known, but the mechanism of interannual to decadal variation remains unclear. In this study, we calculated the annual subduction rates of three types of North Pacific subtropical mode waters using a general circulation model (LICOM1.0) for the period of 1958–2001.

Submesoscale Effects on Formation of the North Pacific Subtropical Mode Water
Journal of Physical OceanographyAbstract The North Pacific subtropical mode water (NPSTMW) is a vertically homogeneous water mass located between the seasonal and permanent thermoclines in the subtropical northwestern Pacific Ocean. It plays a critical role in oceanic heat and carbon storage, significant for understanding climate change.

On the Dynamics of the Subtropical Mode Water from an Ensemble Simulation Viewpoint
The ocean, as the largest carbon reservoir, plays a crucial role in regulating the global climate by absorbing atmospheric carbon dioxide and heat generated by carbon emissions. It achieves this by transferring water masses from the surface to the ocean interior. Among the various features influencing ocean circulation, subtropical mode water (STMW) inAndrew Poje +6 more
