Surface currents that flow from regions near the Equator carry warm water. Those that flow flow from the polar regions carry cold water. The map below shows the strong ocean current off the East Coast of the United States, called the Gulf Stream. D 因为他们可以帮助温暖或凉快的土地,表面潮流...
The picture worsens with each round of El Nino, the unusuallywarmcurrents in the Pacific Ocean that drive up temperatures and invariably presage (预示) droughts and fires in the rain forest. 出自-2013年6月阅读原文 The unusualwarmcurrents in the Pacific Ocean ...
These Red Sea coral frameworks are formed by species of the families Dendrophylliidae and Caryophylliidae, families which are also known framework builders in cold-water environments, usually associated with deep, offshore areas82. Caryophylliidae (e.g.,Goniocorella Dumosa(Alcock, 1902), Desmo...

atmospheric and in particular ocean currents, are inherently chaotic systems, prone to switch from one particular quasi-stable flow pattern to another. For ocean currents we know this behaviour as the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, the Atlantic Multi-decadal Oscillation, the Indian Ocean Dipole and the...
Tides in the central and western basins of the Bransfield Strait were found to be stronger than the geostrophic flow (below the surface Ekman layer) with velocities up to 40 cm/s59. Tides are involved in water mass transports (and mixing) between Bransfield Strait and Maxwell Bay and vice...
Previous studies revealed that the fronts in the YSWC source region usually form in December and decay in March (Liu and Wang, 2009), and stably exist during the mature period of the YSWC. The YF-N occurs north of the YSWC source region at 33.75°N between 124°E and 126°E, which ...
The local temperature change is negative in the northern and equatorial Indian Ocean, and in the regions of Indonesian Throughflow and its outflow. However, it is positive to the west of 50°E and south of 13°S (Figure 7a). These local temperature changes appear to result from the ...
The timing and location of large schools of tuna are often synchronous with occurrence of abundant food items, usually preceding oceanographic processes such as upwelling (Laurs et al., 1984, Fiedler and Bernard, 1987, Andrade, 2003). In the western North Pacific, skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelami...
In contrast, in other areas like Gulf of Mexico and open ocean of Western North Pacific, interactions between ocean eddies and TCs such as Opal, Mitch, and Maemi usually last more than 10 h [19]. As a result, the influences of warm ocean eddies on TC intensity changes in the SCS ...
