Interannual variability in the tropical Indian Ocean [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2002
The interannual variability in the tropical Indian Ocean is examined using 41‐year (1958–1998) seasonal anomalies of the upper‐ocean heat content (HCA), sea surface temperature (SSTA), and surface wind stress. Precipitation anomalies from a shorter period (1979–1998) have also been analyzed.

Tropical cyclone activity over the Southwest Tropical Indian Ocean [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2016
AbstractThe Southwest Tropical Indian Ocean (SWTIO) is a key region for air‐sea interaction. Tropical cyclones (TCs) regularly form over the SWTIO and subsurface ocean variability influences the cyclogenesis of this region. Tropical cyclone days for this region span from November through April, and peak in January and February during austral summer ...

Influence of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation on Continental United States Hurricane Landfalls

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
The Madden‐Julian oscillation (MJO) significantly impacts North Atlantic hurricanes, with increased hurricane activity occurring when the MJO enhances convection over Africa and the tropical Indian Ocean and suppressed hurricane activity occurring when ...

Relationship between South China Sea Summer Monsoon and Western North Pacific Tropical Cyclones Linkages with the Interaction of Indo-Pacific Pattern

Atmosphere, 2023
The South China Sea (SCS) summer monsoon (SCSSM) and Western North Pacific tropical cyclones (TCs) are both tropical systems that interact with each other on multiple scales.

Interannual upper ocean variability in the tropical Indian Ocean [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2001
Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis is used to characterize interannual upper ocean temperature variability since mid‐1980s along two repeated XBT sections across the Indian Ocean. The mode 1 EOF loadings have deepened thermocline in the western tropical Indian Ocean and a shoal thermocline in the east/southeast Indian Ocean during the 1994 ...

Relative contributions of heat flux and wind stress on the spatiotemporal upper-ocean variability in the tropical Indian Ocean

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
High-resolution ocean general circulation model (OGCM) simulations are employed to investigate interannual variability of the upper-ocean temperature in the tropical Indian Ocean (20°S–20°N).

Tropical deoxygenation sites revisited to investigate oxygen and nutrient trends [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2021
An oxygen decrease of the intermediate-depth low-oxygen zones (300 to 700 m) is seen in time series for selected tropical areas for the period 1960 to 2008 in the eastern tropical Atlantic, the equatorial Pacific and the eastern tropical Indian Ocean ...

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

, 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 ...

Western Indian Ocean marine and terrestrial records of climate variability: a review and new concepts on land-ocean interactions since AD 1660 [PDF]

, 2008
We examine the relationship between three tropical and two subtropical western Indian Ocean coral oxygen isotope time series to surface air temperatures (SAT) and rainfall over India, tropical East Africa and southeast Africa.

A Diagnostic Study of the Indian Ocean Dipole Mode in El Nino and Non- El Nino Years [PDF]

, 2006
The Indian Ocean Dipole Mode (IODM) is examined by comparing the characteristics of oceanic and atmospheric circulations, heat budgets, and possible mechanisms of IODM between El Nino and non-El Nino years.
