Bjerknes-like Compensation in the Wintertime North Pacific
Observational and model evidence has been mounting that mesoscale eddies play an important role in air– sea interaction in the vicinity of western boundary currents and can affect the jet stream storm track. What is less clear is the interplay between oceanic and atmospheric meridional heat transport in the vicinity of western boundary currents. It is first shown that variability in the North P...
متن کاملEffect of biomass burning over the western North Pacific Rim: wintertime maxima of anhydrosugars in ambient aerosols from Okinawa
Biomass burning (BB) largely modifies the chemical composition of atmospheric aerosols on the globe. We collected aerosol samples (TSP) at Cape Hedo, on subtropical Okinawa Island, from October 2009 to February 2012 to study anhydrosugars as BB tracers. Levoglucosan was detected as the dominant anhydrosugar followed by its isomers, mannosan and galactosan. We found a clear seasonal trend of lev...
متن کاملNORTH PACIFIC RIGHT WHALE (Eubalaena japonica): Eastern North Pacific Stock
STOCK DEFINITION AND GEOGRAPHIC RANGE A comprehensive review of all 20 century sighting, catches, and strandings of North Pacific right whales was conducted by Brownell et al. (2001). Data from this review were subsequently combined with historical whaling records to map the known distribution of the species (Clapham et al. 2004, Shelden et al. 2005). Although whaling records initially indicate...

متن کاملModelling iron limitation in the North Pacific
The subarctic North Pacific is one of three major high nitrate, low chlorophyll (HNLC) oceanic regions, along with the Southern Ocean and the eastern equatorial Pacific. In these regions, uptake of nitrogen by phytoplankton is widely thought to be regulated by the availability of dissolved iron. The supply of dissolved iron is twofold: via atmospheric deposition of dust and via upward transport...
