Ocean eddy freshwater flux convergence into the North Atlantic subtropics
Abstract For a quasi steady state condition, the water vapor flux from the ocean to atmosphere typical of the salty subtropics must be compensated by ocean processes that transfer freshwater into the evaporative regime. Observations of the North Atlantic subtropical sea surface salinity maximum region frequently reveal the presence of eddies with distinct salinity/temperature signatures of up t...

متن کاملTropical Pacific/Atlantic Ocean Interactions at Multi-Decadal Time Scales
Analysis of sea surface temperature (SST) observations suggests a pan-oceanic interaction between the tropical Pacific and the Atlantic Ocean at multi-decadal time scales, such that periods of anomalously high SSTs in the eastern tropical Pacific are followed by a basinwide SST dipole in the Atlantic Ocean with a time delay of a few decades. The SST anomaly structure in the Atlantic Ocean is re...
متن کاملOcean Currents Modeling along the Iranian Coastline of the Oman Sea and the Northern Indian Ocean
The Makran Coast (Iranian Coastline of the Oman Sea on the Northern Indian Ocean) plays an important role in country’s future navigation and trade due to its accessibility. In 2014, the Iranian Makran coastline was selected by the PMO to be studied as the Phase 6 in the series of Monitoring and Modelling Studies of Iranian Coasts with all disciplines being in investigated including currents. Al...
متن کاملEulerian and Lagrangian Isopycnal Eddy Diffusivities in the Southern Ocean of an Eddying Model
Lagrangian isopycnal diffusivities quantify the along-isopycnal mixing of any tracer with mean gradients along isopycnal surfaces. They are studied in the Southern Ocean of the 1/108 Parallel Ocean Program (POP) model using more than 50 000 float trajectories. Concurrent Eulerian isopycnal diffusivities are estimated directly from the eddy fluxes and mean tracer gradients. Consistency, spatial ...
