The paper presents an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system for predicting sea level considering tide-generating forces and oceanic thermal expansion assuming a model of sea level dependence on sea surface temperature. The proposed model named TGFT-FN (tide-Generating Forces considering sea surface temperature and Fuzzy neuro-network system) is applied to predict tides at five tide gauge sites ...

A modelling and observational study was conducted in 1982-83 into the relationships between airflow and sea surface temperature along the Canterbury coast near Banks Peninsula. Nearshore sea surface temperatures dropped by as much as 3-4 °C during periods of strong offshore airflow, particularly north-westerlies. This may have been associated with coastal upwelling. A following southerly may al...

For over 40 years, remote sensing observations of the Earth’s oceans have yielded global measurements sea surface temperature (SST).With a resolution approximately 1 km, these data trace physical processes like western boundary currents, cool upwelling at eastern and formation mesoscale sub-mesoscale eddies. To discover fundamental patterns SST on scales smaller than 10 we developed an unsuperv...

A one-dimensional scheme is used to assimilate satellite Sea Surface Temperature data into the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory Coastal Ocean Modelling System, set up in the Irish Sea with a fine resolution (∼1.8 km). The capabilities of the assimilation scheme are investigated using two different sets of satellite data, of lower and similar resolution to that of the model respectively. Compar...

Knowing the distribution of marine animals is central to understanding climatic and other environmental influences on population ecology. This information has proven difficult to gain through capture-based methods biased by capture location. Here we show that marine location can be inferred from animal tissues. As the carbon isotope composition of animal tissues varies with sea surface temperat...

[1] An intensification of the hydrological cycle is a likely consequence of global warming. But changes in the hydrological cycle could affect sea-surface temperature by modifying diffusive ocean heat transports. We investigate this mechanism by studying a coupled general circulation model sensitivity experiment in which the hydrological cycle is artificially amplified. We find that the amplifi...

The influence of sea surface temperature (SST) on atmospheric processes over the open ocean has been well documented. However, atmospheric responses to SST in coastal waters are poorly understood. Oceanic stratification (and consequently, SST) in coastal waters largely depends on the fortnightly spring-neap tidal cycle, because of variations in vertical tidal mixing. Here we investigate how cha...

the aim of this research is the assessment of the relation between rainfall and large scale synoptically patterns at khorasan razavi province. in this study, using adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system, the rainfall estimation has been done from april to june in the area under study. spring rainfall data including the information of 38 synoptic, climatologic and rain gauge stations from 1970 to...
