Tropical cyclone footprint in the ocean mixed layer observed by Argo in the Northwest Pacific
This study systematically investigated the ocean mixed layer responses to tropical cyclone (TC) using available Argo profiles during the period of 1998–2011 in the northwest Pacific. Results reveal that isothermal layer (IL) deepening and isothermal layer (IL) cooling with evident rightward biases induced by strong TCs are clearer compared to the weak TCs. Likewise, the rightward biases of IL d...
متن کاملMixed Layer Depth Seasonality within the Coral Sea Based on Argo Data
The worldwide deployment of Argo floats has enabled much more detailed studies of global and regional seas over the last decade. Here, the seasonal variability of the mixed layer depth (MLD) within the Coral Sea was examined with CTD profiles from Argo floats. Multiple threshold values for both temperature and density have been employed to determine the most suitable threshold values for the Co...
متن کاملOcean Mixed Layer
The ocean mixed layer (OML), the ocean region adjacent to the air–sea interface, is typically tens of meters deep, and due to the fact that it is well mixed, the temperature and salinity (and therefore the density) are fairly uniform. The rapidly changing regions below these uniform regions of temperature, salinity, and density are called the thermocline, halocline, and pycnocline, respectively...
متن کاملCathodoluminescence and depth profiles of tin in float glass
Cathodoluminescence (CL) spectra have been recorded from float glass samples and the data used to determine the depth profile of tin introduced from the float process. The luminescence data were interpreted in terms of intrinsic emission bands at 380 and 410 nm and well resolved extrinsic emission bands resulting from the tin impurities at 575 and 630 nm. Signals were recorded at temperatures f...
متن کاملThe effect of ocean mixed layer depth on climate in slab ocean aquaplanet experiments
The effect of ocean mixed layer depth on climate is explored in a suite of slab ocean aquaplanet simulations with different mixed layer depths ranging from a globally uniform value of 50–2.4 m. In addition to the expected increase in the amplitude of the seasonal cycle in temperature with decreasing ocean mixed layer depth, the simulated climates differ in several less intuitive ways including ...
