(1 micron = 1/1,000 mm) it isdissipatedas heat. Thewindblowing over the sea surface transfers momentum to the water. This frictional force at the sea surface (i.e., the wind stress) produces the wind-driven circulation. Currents moving along the ocean floor and the sides of the ocean...
East Australian Currentsea surface temperatureencroachmenteddyThe East Australian Current (EAC) is a highly dynamic western boundary current that exerts significant influences on the marine ecosystem off southeast margin of Australia. For the first time, a quantitative mapping of the EAC system was ...
The sea surface temperature and the sea surface current were measured on board the KeitenMaru every 6.3 miles along the round trip cruise between Kagoshima and Takamatu on May of1987. The transition zone between the Kuroshio and the Seto Inland Sea waters was found inthe Bungo Channel. The sea...

Return Periods of Anomalous Sea-Surface Temperature Events Inferred From Wavelet Analysis of Thermal Proxy Records in Corals: Implications for Coral Bleaching Coral populations are highly responsive to thermal stress, often resulting in considerable bleaching and subsequent mortality. Tolerance and adjustment...
Atlantic Ocean, body of salt water covering approximately one-fifth of Earth’s surface and separating the continents of Europe and Africa to the east from those of North and South America to the west. The ocean’s name, derived from Greek mythology, means the “Sea of Atlas.” It is sec...
Sea surface imagery is another useful product to examine the surface expressions of various kinds of motions in the upper ocean. For example, the ocean is rich in short- and long-lived mesoscale dynamic features. Examples include meandering currents and eddies with distinctsea surface temperaturefron...
Based upon monthly sea surface temperature data from American CODAS and the Climate Monitoring Bulletin issued by the National Climate Center, correlation analysis of sea surface temperature changes among the areas C (0°-10°S, 180°-90°W), W (0°-10°N, 180°-140°E), B (0°-10°...
