The Seasonal and Interannual Variability
The Labrador Sea, as one of a few places of deep water formation, plays an important role in the Meridional Overturning Circulation. While the interior of the Labrador Sea, where the deepest convection takes place, is known to experience variability on time scales ranging from days to decades, little is known about the variability of the other components of the Labrador Sea circulation the boun...
متن کاملSeasonal Cycle and Interannual Variability in the Amazon Hydrologic Cycle
An analysis of the Amazon basin hydrologic cycle has been carried out using the NASA/GEOS1 atmospheric reanalysis, observed rainfall of Xie and Arkin, and historical Amazon river discharge. Over a seasonal cycle, the precipitation is found to vary by 5 mm day 1, the runo by 2 mm day 1 while the evaporation largely remains constant. On interannual time scales, the hydrologic variability both in ...
متن کاملTransient, Seasonal and Interannual Variability of the Taiwan Strait Current
We have constructed a fine-resolution model with realistic bathymetry to study the spatial and temporal variations of circulation in the Taiwan Strait (TS). The TS model with a resolution of 3~10 km derives its open boundary conditions from a larger-scale model. The QSCAT/NCEP winds and AVHRR SST provide forcing at the sea surface. Because of the high resolution in model grids and forcing, the ...
متن کاملGulf of Maine salinity variation and its correlation with upstream Scotian Shelf currents at seasonal and interannual time scales
In the Gulf of Maine (GoM), a network of buoy hydrography measurements collected since 2001 provide a subsurface salinity time series showing a strong seasonal cycle and interannual variations that are both consistent with remote forcing of Gulf hydrography by upstream advection. These long-term mooring data are combined with satellite altimeter estimates of upper ocean current anomaly on the a...
