DOI: 10.1007/s00382-018-4158-7
Abstract: The Humboldt coastal upwelling system in the eastern South Pacific ocean is one of the most productive marine ecosystems in the world. A weakening of the upwelling activity could lead to severe ecological impacts. As… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00382-018-4534-3
Abstract: The El Niño Modoki is separated into two types, El Niño Modoki I and El Niño Modoki II, which are characterized by substantially different mechanism. According to comparisons between the evolution of air-sea coupled processes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10872-017-0432-2
Abstract: Mesoscale perturbations (with a size of 100–1000 km) of wind stress magnitude, divergence and curl in the Kuroshio Extension (KE) are observed to tightly link to those of sea surface temperature (SST), and downwind and crosswind… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.dynatmoce.2021.101239
Abstract: Abstract In the northern Bay of Bengal, mechanisms of seasonal sea-level variation have not previously been examined, and the understanding of longer-term inter-annual sea-level variation is also not concrete. These parameters are addressed in this… read more here.

Spreading rate and dispersion behavior of evaporation-suppressant monolayer on open water surfaces: Part 2 – Under wind stress
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science"
DOI: 10.1016/j.expthermflusci.2017.05.006
Abstract: Wind causes migration and eventual removal (dispersal or beaching) of evaporation-suppressing monolayer on open-water storages. Hence, an autonomous system capable of adaptive re-application of monolayer according to the prevailing wind conditions is highly desirable. Key… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jpo-d-17-0106.1
Abstract: Subduction processes in the Southern Ocean transfer oxygen, heat, and anthropogenic carbon into the ocean interior. The future response of upper-ocean subduction, in the Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW) and Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) classes, is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jpo-d-20-0142.1
Abstract: It remains uncertain how the Southern Ocean circulation responds to changes in surface wind stress, and whether coarse-resolution simulations, where mesoscale eddy fluxes are parameterized, can adequately capture the response. We address this problem using… read more here.
