Lagrangian drifter paths and length scales in the tropical Pacific warm pool from 1990 to 1991:with application of fractal techniques
Lagrangian drifter paths length scales tropical Pacific warm pool fractal techniques
2009/11/16
This paper presents an analysis of WOCE/TOGA surface drifter paths and its interpretation in conjunction with the west Pacific warm pool water motion. Our interest here lies in the existence of scale ...

Atmospheric surface layer turbulent statistics measured during the Barbados Oceanographic and Meteorological Experiment 8 and 30 m above mean sea level are presented. The budget equations of turbulent...
The Entrainment Influence on the Ocean Surface Layer in Tropical Latitudes
Entrainment Influence Tropical Latitudes Ocean Surface Layer
2009/3/9
A nonlinear, time-dependent, baroclinic model is developed for a zonally uniform, tropical, two-layer ocean on a north-south vertical section. The lower layer is infinitely deep, at rest, and at const...
Eastern Tropical Ocean Response to Changing Wind Systems;with Application to El Niño
Eastern Tropical Ocean El Niñ o Changing Wind Systems
2009/3/7
El Niño is an anomalous condition that historically has been studied in the coastal region of the eastern tropical South Pacific. The phenomenon is commonly characterized there by the rapid app...
Satellite Observations of Mesoscale Eddy Dynamics in the Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean
Mesoscale Eddy Dynamics Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean
2009/3/7
Active mesoscale (300 km diameter) eddy formation off the Pacific coast of Central America was observed during February 1976 by a thermal infrared sensor aboard the NOAA 4 satellite. These anticycloni...
Continental Shelf Currents in Tropical Storm Delia:Observations and Theory
Continental Shelf Currents Tropical Storm Delia
2009/3/7
Storm currents are a significant part of the design hydrodynamic flow field in areas subject to tropical storms. In September 1973, Tropical Storm Delia passed over the instrumented Buccaneer platform...
Annual Forcing of Baroclinic Long Waves in the Tropical North Pacific Ocean
bathythermograph Tropical North Pacific Ocean Baroclinic Long Waves
2009/3/7
From an analysis of the bathythermograph (BT) data files for the entire tropical North Pacific Ocean, the annual vertical displacement in the main thermocline from 10°−20°N is observed to propag...

2009/2/23
Knowledge of the kinematics of the flow beneath surface waves is vital for the design of offshore structures. Due to the technical of making pertinent measurement in storm conditions, knowledge of the...
A Simple Ekman-Type Model for Predicting Thermocline Displacement in the Tropical Pacific
Ekman-Type Model Tropical Pacific Thermocline Displacement
2009/2/23
A linear model is developed for the near-equatorial zone to estimate wind-driven convergences in the near-surface viscous boundary layer. Using the winds observed during EASTROPAC, an attempt is made ...

Long-range P-3 aircraft have been used to occupy two 4000 km long sections from 20°N to 17°S along 150 and 158°W in the central equatorial Pacific. The temperature field along these sections was measu...
The Bottom Boundary Layer in the Eastern Tropical Pacific
Bottom Boundary Layer Eastern Tropical Pacific
2009/2/16
Vertical and horizontal structure of near-bottom currents at two locations in the eastern tropical Pacific (9°26′N, 151°17′W; 14°38′N, 125°29′W) have been studied. Low-frequency currents at these site...
Heat budget estimates for the global tropics are derived from recent calculations of the oceanic heat budget and satellite measurements of net radiation at the top of the atmosphere. Annual mean heat ...
