Transient, 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 ...

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...

Seasonal variability of the Canary Current: A numerical study

[1] A high‐resolution numerical model study of the Canary Basin in the northeast subtropical Atlantic Ocean is presented. A long‐term climatological solution from the Regional Oceanic Modeling System (ROMS) reveals mesoscale variability associated with the Azores and Canary Current systems, the northwest African coastal upwelling, and the Canary Island archipelago. The primary result concerns t...

Seasonal 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 ...

Interannual and Seasonal Variability of Macroinvertebrates in Monsoonal Climate Streams

The aim of this study was to assess the interannual and seasonal changes in the community composition, abundance and presence-absence of macroinvertebrates in the streams of the northwestern of Argentina. The importance of environmental variability in determining these changes was also analyzed. Macroinvertebrates were collected in eleven streams during high (March) and low (September) water pe...
