The SURTROPAC group of the Centre ORSTOM de Noumea, New Caledonia, South Pacific, will host an international meeting on TOGA (Tropical Ocean and Global Atmosphere Program) followed by a workshop for planning the TOGA‐COARE work (Coupled Ocean‐Atmosphere Response Experiment) in the western equatorial Pacific Ocean. Joel Picaut of ORSTOM‐Noumea and Roger

A Near-Surface Microstructure Sensor System Used During TOGA COARE. Part I: Bow Measurements. [PDF]
High-resolution probes mounted on the bow of the vessel at a 1.7-m depth in an undisturbed region ahead of the moving vessel were used for microstructure and turbulence measurements in the near-surface layer of the ocean during TOGA COARE.

TOGA‐COARE Program Announcement
The President's 1991 National Science Foundation and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Budgets to Congress request funds to augment the Tropical Ocean/Global Atmosphere (TOGA) Research Program. This includes about $5 million in Fiscal Year 1991, with similar amounts planned in 1992 and 1993.

A Further Look at Q1 and Q2 from TOGA COARE
Abstract Two features of Yanai et al.’s profiles of Q1 and Q2—the commonly observed double-peak structure to Q2 and an inflection in the Q1 profile below the melting level—are explored using estimates of convective and stratiform rainfall partitioning based on Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) radar reflectivity data collected ...

Multiscale Air–Sea Interactions during TOGA COARE
Abstract Two distinct intraseasonal oscillations (ISO) are found in the tropical ocean atmosphere in the western Pacific region during Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA COARE). The ISO is characterized by cycles of dry–wet phases in the atmosphere due to the passage of Madden–Julian oscillations, and ...

Field research for a 4‐month multinational study of the interactions between the tropical ocean and the global atmosphere will begin on November 1. The massive Coupled Ocean‐Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) will involve over 700 scientists and support staff from 19 nations.

Abstract This study evaluates the subseasonal‐to‐seasonal (S2S) prediction skill of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) and its impacts on the east Pacific (EP) tropical cyclogenesis in the Unified Forecast System (UFS) during boreal summer (May–October).

Abstract Global uncoupled storm‐resolving simulations using the ICOsahedral Non‐hydrostatic (ICON) model with prescribed sea surface temperature (SST) show a double band of precipitation in the Western Pacific, a feature explained by reduced precipitation over the warm pool. Three hypotheses using an energetic framework are advanced to explain the warm

A global climatology of the diurnal variations in sea-surface temperature and implications for MSU temperature trends [PDF]
A global climatology of diurnal variations in sea-surface temperature based on in situ drifting-buoy data has been created. The diurnal warming signal derived from these data correlates well with estimates from a version of the Stuart-Menteth (2004 ...

Extended EOF Analysis of Tropical Disturbances: TOGA COARE
Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analyses are performed of time‐height series of zonal and meridional winds and of cumulonimbus heating and drying in the Tropics. The data are from a rawinsonde array in the western Pacific located between the equator and 108S during the intensive observation period of the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled ...
