Robust Responses of the Hydrological Cycle to Global Warming
Using the climate change experiments generated for the Fourth Assessment of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, this study examines some aspects of the changes in the hydrological cycle that are robust across the models. These responses include the decrease in convective mass fluxes, the increase in horizontal moisture transport, the associated enhancement of the pattern of evaporati...
متن کاملImpacts of Argo salinity in NCEP Global Ocean Data Assimilation System: The tropical Indian Ocean
[1] Salinity profiles collected by the International Argo Project (International Argo Project data are available at http://argo.jcommops.org) since 2000 provide us an unprecedented opportunity to study impacts of salinity data on the quality of ocean analysis, which has been hampered by a lack of salinity observations historically. The operational Global Ocean Data Assimilation System (GODAS) d...

متن کاملMean Surface Circulation of the Global Ocean Inferred from Satellite Altimeter and Drifter Data
Sea level anomaly from satellite altimetry and in situ near-surface drifter velocities, combined within a simplified equation of horizontal momentum, reveal peculiar dynamical balances in the strongest known currents of the World Ocean. In the Gulf Stream, this study demonstrates the importance of centrifugal force due to the curvature of the streamlines. After filtering out Ekman currents (usi...
متن کاملDecadal changes in global ocean chlorophyll
[1] The global ocean chlorophyll archive produced by the CZCS was revised using compatible algorithms with SeaWiFS. Both archives were then blended with in situ data to reduce residual errors. This methodology permitted a quantitative comparison of decadal changes in global ocean chlorophyll from the CZCS (1979–1986) and SeaWiFS (1997–2000) records. Global spatial distributions and seasonal var...
