Vertical Momentum Flux at 0°N, 140°W: Unresolved Internal Waves and Implications for Cold Tongue SST

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Equatorial Pacific Cold Tongue is critical to the Bjerknes feedback driving the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO), yet simulating Cold Tongue sea surface temperature (SST) remains difficult. Historical turbulence observations reveal a vertical momentum flux deficit in the zonal momentum budget at 0°N, 140°W.
