Intrinsic Ocean–Atmosphere Variability of the Tropical Atlantic Ocean
The tropical Atlantic variability is composed of three major patterns of significant importance for variability and predictability of climate in the Atlantic sector. They are the southern tropical Atlantic (STA) pattern with anomalous sea surface temperature (SST) fluctuations expanding from the Angolan coast to the central equatorial ocean, the northern tropical Atlantic (NTA) pattern centered...
متن کاملOpen ocean dead zones in the tropical North Atlantic Ocean
Here we present first observations, from instrumentation installed on moorings and a float, of unexpectedly low (< 2 μmolkg) oxygen environments in the open waters of the tropical North Atlantic, a region where oxygen concentration does normally not fall much below 40 μmolkg. The low-oxygen zones are created at shallow depth, just below the mixed layer, in the euphotic zone of cyclonic eddies a...
متن کاملCyclonic gyre in the tropical South Atlantic
A cyclonic gyre within the eastern tropical South Atlantic is resolved by an extensive oceanographic station array obtained in 1983 and 19&4. The gyre is centered near nos and SOE with a sea surface relief relative to 1500 decibars (db) of8 dyn em. The 500 db surface relative to 1500 db reveals a much diminished cyclonic circulation, shifted slightly to the south. The weak baroclinic expression...
متن کاملMicrophysical and radiative evolution of aerosol plumes over the tropical North Atlantic Ocean
[1] Over the tropical North Atlantic Ocean in the summer, plumes of aerosol extend from Saharan Africa to the Caribbean. The microphysical and radiative evolution of such plumes is studied using a Lagrangian column model and measurements obtained near the west coast of Africa (during the second Aerosol Characterization Experiment [ACE-2]) and the Caribbean Sea (during the Passing Efficiency of ...
