Drivers and characteristics of the Indo-western Pacific Ocean capacitor

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2022
Coherently coupled ocean-atmosphere variability of the tropical Indo-Pacific Oceans gives rise to the predictability of Asian summer climate. Recent advances in Indo-western Pacific Ocean capacitor (IPOC) theory and the relationship with El Niño-Southern

Sedimentary CaCO3 Accumulation in the Deep West Pacific Ocean

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Distribution of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in marine sediment has been studied over the last century, and influence by multiple factors with regard to dissolution and dilution of sedimentary CaCO3 has long been established.

Humpback whale song on the southern ocean feeding grounds: implications for cultural transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Male humpback whales produce a long, complex, and stereotyped song on low-latitude breeding grounds; they also sing while migrating to and from these locations, and occasionally in high-latitude summer feeding areas.

Pacific Equatorial Transect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 320/321, "Pacific Equatorial Age Transect" (Sites U1331–U1338), was designed to recover a continuous Cenozoic record of the paleoequatorial Pacific by coring above the paleoposition of the Equator at ...

Evidencing decadal and interdecadal hydroclimatic variability over the Central Andes

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2016
In this study we identified a significant low frequency variability (8 to 20 years) that characterizes the hydroclimatology over the Central Andes. Decadal–interdecadal variability is related to the central-western Pacific Ocean ( R ^2  = 0.50) and the ...

Tropical–North Pacific Climate Linkages over the Past Four Centuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Analyses of instrumental data demonstrate robust linkages between decadal-scale North Pacific and tropical Indo-Pacific climatic variability. These linkages encompass common regime shifts, including the noteworthy 1976 transition in Pacific climate ...

Groups without cultured representatives dominate eukaryotic picophytoplankton in the oligotrophic South East Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPE) with a cell size less than 3 µm play a critical role in oceanic primary production. In recent years, the composition of marine picoeukaryote communities has been intensively investigated by molecular ...

Local environmental conditions related to seasonal tropical cyclone activity in the Northeast Pacific basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Tropical cyclone formation in the NE Pacific Ocean is poorly understood. We show that by dividing the NE Pacific Ocean into two regions, east and west of 116 degreesW, our understanding is enhanced in terms of which climatological factors are involved ...

Phylogeography of the crown-of-thorns starfish in the Indian Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Understanding the limits and population dynamics of closely related sibling species in the marine realm is particularly relevant in organisms that require management.

Genetic diversity and population structure of the pelagic thresher shark (Alopias pelagicus) in the Pacific Ocean: evidence for two evolutionarily significant units. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
There has been an increasing concern about shark overexploitation in the last decade, especially for open ocean shark species, where there is a paucity of data about their life histories and population dynamics.
