Wind-driven Rossby waves in the tropical South Indian Ocean with and without an active ENSO [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The interannual heat content variability in the tropical south Indian Ocean (SIO) and its relationship with El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is studied.

Ultrathin Tropical Tropopause Clouds (UTTCs) : I. Cloud morphology and occurrence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Subvisible cirrus clouds (SVCs) may contribute to dehydration close to the tropical tropopause. The higher and colder SVCs and the larger their ice crystals, the more likely they represent the last efficient point of contact of the gas phase with the ice

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Indian Ocean Dipole affects eastern tropical Atlantic salinity through Congo River Basin hydrology

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
The Indian Ocean Dipole is associated with a pronounced sea surface temperature gradient between eastern and western Indian Ocean. Here, we describe a striking contrast in Congo basin rainfall, river discharge and Eastern Tropical Atlantic surface ...

Interdecadal changes on the seasonal prediction of the western North Pacific summer climate around the late 1970s and early 1990s [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Identifying predictability and the corresponding sources for the western North Pacific (WNP) summer climate in the case of non-stationary teleconnections during recent decades benefits for further improvements of long-range prediction on the WNP and East

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...

Analysis of Influencing Factors of SST in Tropical West Indian Ocean Based on COBE Satellite Data

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The time-frequency domain analysis of the sea surface temperature (SST) in the tropical western Indian Ocean was conducted using wavelet analysis, cross wavelet transform (XWT), the Mann–Kendall (MK) test, and other methods based on COBE-SST data for the

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Climate fluctuations of tropical coupled system: The role of ocean dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The tropical oceans have long been recognized as the most important region for large-scale ocean–atmosphere interactions, giving rise to coupled climate variations on several time scales.
