Advances in L-band microwave satellite radiometry in the past decade, pioneered by ESA's
SMOS and NASA's Aquarius and SMAP missions, have demonstrated an unprecedented …

A feature of the central equatorial Pacific is a strong divergent equatorial upwelling called
the cold tongue, which is favorable to the development of a large zonal band with high levels …

A new 2° resolution global climatology of the mixed layer depth (MLD) based on individual
profiles is constructed. Previous global climatologies have been based on temperature or …

Salinity observing satellites have the potential to monitor river fresh-water plumes
mesoscale spatio-temporal variations better than any other observing system. In the case of …

An important element of a data assimilation system is the statistical model used for
representing the correlations of background error. This paper describes a practical algorithm …

Using instantaneous temperature and salinity profiles, including recent Argo data, a global
ocean climatology of monthly mean properties of the “barrier layer”(BL) phenomenon is …
