Using reanalysis data, the role of initial signals in the tropical Pacific Ocean in predictions of negative Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) events were analyzed. It was found that the summer predictability barrier (SPB) phenomenon exists in predictions, which is closely related to initial sea temperature errors in the tropical Pacific Ocean, with type-1 initial errors presenting a significant west-east dipole pattern in the tropical Pacific Ocean, and type-2 initial errors showing the opposite spatial pattern. In contrast, SPB-related initial sea temperature errors in the tropical Indian Ocean are relatively small. The initial errors in the tropical Pacific Ocean induce anomalous winds in the tropical Indian Ocean by modulating the Walker circulation in the tropical oceans. In the first half of the prediction year, the anomalous winds, combined with the climatological winds in the tropical Indian Ocean, induce a basin-wide mode of sea surface temperature (SST) errors in the tropical Indian Ocean. With the reversal of the climatological wind in the second half of the prediction year, a west-east dipole pattern of SST errors appears in the tropical Indian Ocean, which is further strengthened under the Bjerknes feedback, yielding a significant SPB. Moreover, two types of precursors were also identified: a significant west-east dipole pattern in the tropical Pacific Ocean and relatively small temperature anomalies in the tropical Indian Ocean. Under the combined effects of temperature anomalies in the tropical Indian and Pacific oceans, northwest wind anomalies appear in the tropical Indian Ocean, which induce a significant west-east dipole pattern of SST anomalies, and yield a negative IOD event. 相似文献

Two modes of dipole events in tropical Indian Ocean 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
By analyzing the distributions of subsurface temperature and the surface wind stress anomalies in the tropical Pacific and
Indian Oceans during the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) events, two major modes of the IOD and their formation mechanisms are revealed.
(1) The subsurface temperature anomaly (STA) in the tropical Indian Ocean during the IOD events can be described as a “<”
-shaped and west-east-oriented dipole pattern; in the east side of the “<” pattern, a notable tongue-like STA extends westward
along the equator in the tropical eastern Indian Ocean; while in the west side of the “<” pattern, the STA has opposite sign
with two centers (the southern one is stronger than the northern one in intensity) being of rough symmetry about the equator
in the tropical mid-western Indian Ocean. (2) The IOD events are composed of two modes, which have similar spatial pattern
but different temporal variabilities due to the large scale air-sea interactions within two independent systems. The first
mode of the IOD event originates from the air-sea interaction on a scale of the tropical Pacific-Indian Ocean and coexists
with ENSO. The second mode originates from the air-sea interaction on a scale of the tropical Indian Ocean and is closely
associated with changes in the position and intensity of the Mascarene high pressure. The strong IOD event occurs when the
two modes are in phase, and the IOD event weakens or disappears when the two modes are out of phase. Besides, the IOD events
are normally strong when either of the two modes is strong. (3) The IOD event is caused by the abnormal wind stress forcing
over the tropical Indian Ocean, which results in vertical transports, leading to the upwelling and pileup of seawater. This
is the main dynamic processes resulting in the STA. When the anomalous easterly exists over the equatorial Indian Ocean, the
cold waters upwell in the tropical eastern Indian Ocean while the warm waters pileup in the tropical western Indian Ocean,
hence the thermocline in the tropical Indian Ocean is shallowed in the east and deepened in the west. The off-equator component
due to the Coriolis force in the equatorial area causes the upwelling of cold waters and the shallowing of the equatorial
India Ocean thermocline. On the other hand, the anomalous anticyclonic circulations and their curl fields located on both
sides of the equator, cause the pileup of warm waters in the central area of their curl fields and the deepening of the equatorial
Indian Ocean thermocline off the equator. The above three factors lead to the occurrence of positive phase IOD events. When
anomalous westerly dominates over the tropical Indian Ocean, the dynamic processes are reversed, and the negative-phase IOD
event occurs.

Interannual variability in the Biannual Rossby waves in the tropical Indian Ocean and its relation to Indian Ocean Dipole and El Nino forcing 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The interannual variability of the tropical Indian Ocean is studied using Simple Ocean Data Assimilation (SODA) sea surface
height anomalies (SSHA) and Hadley Centre Ice Sea Surface Temperature anomalies. Biannual Rossby waves (BRW) were observed
along the 1.5° S and 10.5° S latitudes during the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) years. The SODA SSHA and its BRW components were
comparable with those of Topex/Poseidon. The phase speed of BRW along 1.5° S is −28 cm/s, which is comparable with the theoretical
speed of first mode baroclinic (equatorially trapped) Rossby waves. This is the first study to show that no such propagation
is seen along 1.5° S during El Nino years in the absence of IOD. Thus the westward propagating downwelling BRW in the equatorial
Indian Ocean is hypothesized as a potential predictor for IOD. These waves transport heat from the eastern equatorial Indian
Ocean to west, long before the dipole formation. Along 10.5° S, the BRW formation mechanisms during the El Nino and IOD years
were found to be different. The eastern boundary variations along 10.5° S, being localized, do not influence the ocean interior
considerably. Major portion of the interannual variability of the thermocline, is caused by the Ekman pumping integrated along
the characteristic lines of Rossby waves. The study provides evidence of internal dynamics in the IOD formation. The positive
trend in the downwelling BRW (both in SODA and Topex/Poseidon) is of great concern, as it contributes to the Indian Ocean
warming. 相似文献

Multi-scale variability of the tropical Indian Ocean circulation system revealed by recent observations 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

The tropical Indian Ocean circulation system includes the equatorial and near-equatorial circulations, the marginal sea circulation, and eddies. The dynamic processes of these circulation systems show significant multi-scale variability associated with the Indian Monsoon and the Indian Ocean dipole. This paper summarizes the research progress over recent years on the tropical Indian Ocean circulation system based on the large-scale hydrological observations and numerical simulations by the South China Sea Institute of Oceanology(SCSIO), Chinese Academy of Sciences. Results show that:(1) the wind-driven Kelvin and Rossby waves and eastern boundary-reflected Rossby waves regulate the formation and evolution of the Equatorial Undercurrent and the Equatorial Intermediate Current;(2) the equatorial wind-driven dynamics are the main factor controlling the inter-annual variability of the thermocline in the eastern Indian Ocean upwelling;(3) the equatorial waves transport large amounts of energy into the Bay of Bengal in forms of coastal Kelvin and reflected free Rossby waves. Several unresolved issues within the tropical Indian Ocean are discussed:(i) the potential effects of the momentum balance and the basin resonance on the variability of the equatorial circulation system, and(ii) the potential contribution of wind-driven dynamics to the life cycle of the eastern Indian Ocean upwelling. This paper also briefly introduces the international Indian Ocean investigation project of the SCSIO, which will advance the study of the multi-scale variability of the tropical Indian Ocean circulation system, and provide a theoretical and data basis to support marine environmental security for the countries around the Maritime Silk Road. 相似文献

Tritium in the Arctic Ocean and East Greenland Current 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
High concentrations of tritium are found in the surface water of the Arctic Ocean (up to 50 TU) and in the East Greenland Current (up to 70 TU). These high tritium values are a direct result of atmospheric testing of nuclear weapons in the early 1960's. A box model with a time-dependent input of highly tritiated precipitation predicts that high tritium concentrations are to be expected in the surface layer of the Arctic Ocean and its various outflows. We suggest that a few tritium stations in the Arctic Ocean would provide a powerful analytical tool for assigning time scales to exchange processes. 相似文献

—Rayleigh and Love waves generated by sixteen earthquakes which occurred in the Indian Ocean and were recorded at 13 WWSSN stations of Asia, Africa and Australia are used to determine the moment tensor solution of these earthquakes. A combination of thrust and strike-slip faulting is obtained for earthquakes occurring in the Bay of Bengal. Thrust, strike slip or normal faulting (or either of the combination) is obtained for earthquakes occurring in the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. The resultant compressive and tensional stress directions are estimated from more than 300 centroid moment tensor (CMT) solution of earthquakes occurring in different parts of the Indian Ocean. The resultant compressive stress directions are changing from north-south to east-west and the resultant tensional stress directions from east-west to north-south in different parts of the Indian Ocean. The results infer the counterclockwise movement of the region (0°–33°S and 64°E–94°E), stretching from the Rodriguez triple junction to the intense deformation zone of the central Indian Ocean and the formation of a new subduction zone (island arc) beneath the intense deformation zone of the central Indian Ocean and another at the southern part of the central Indian basin. The compressive stress direction is along the ridge axis and the extensional stress manifests across the ridge axis. The north-south to northeast-south west compression and east-west to northwest-southeast extension in the Indian Ocean suggest the northward underthrusting of the Indian plate beneath the Eurasian plate and the subduction beneath the Sunda arc region in the eastern part. The focal depth of earthquakes is estimated to be shallow, varying from 4 to 20 km and increasing gradually in the age of the oceanic lithosphere with the focal depth of earthquakes in the Indian Ocean. 相似文献

Abstract Understanding the evolution and destruction of past oceans not only leads to a better understanding of earth history, but permits comparison with extant ocean basins and tectonic processes. This paper reviews the history of the Early Paleozoic circum-Atlantic oceans by analogy with the Pacific Ocean and Mesozoic Tethys. Rifting and continental separation from 620 to 570 Ma led to the development of passive margins along parts of the northern margin of Gondwana (the western coast of South America); eastern Laurentia (eastern North America, NW Scotland and East Greenland), and western Baltica (western Scandinavia). Meagre paleomagnetic data suggest that western South America and eastern North America could have been joined together to form facing margins after breakup. Although western Baltica is an apparently obvious candidate for the margin facing NW Scotland and East Greenland, the paleomagnetic uncertainties are so large that other fragments could have been positioned there instead. The Iapetus Ocean off northeastern Gondwana was probably a relatively wide Pacific-type ocean with, during the late Precambrian to early Ordovician, the northern margin of Gondwana as a site of continentward-dipping subduction zone(s). The 650-500 Ma arc-related igneous activity here and the associated deformation gave rise to the Cadomian, ‘Grampian’, Penobscotian, and Famantinian igneous and orogenic events. By 490-470 Ma, marginal basins had formed along the eastern Laurentian margin as far as NE Scotland, along parts of the northern margin of Gondwana, and off western Baltica, but none are known from the East Greenland margin. These basins closed and parts were emplaced as ophiolites shortly after their formation by processes that, at least in some cases, closely resemble the emplacement of the late Cretaceous Semail ophiolite of Oman. This orogenic phase seems to have involved collision and attempted subduction of the continental margin of Laurentia, Gondwana and Baltica. In Baltica it gave rise to some eclogite facies metamorphism. Marginal basin development may have been preceded by arc formation as early as ca 510 Ma. A double arc system evolved outboard from the eastern Laurentian and western Baltica margins, analogous to some of the arc systems in the present-day western Pacific. At 480-470 Ma, there was a second phase of breakup of Gondwana, affecting the active Gondwanan margin. Eastern and Western Avalonia, the Carolina Slate Belt, Piedmont, and other North American exotic continental blocks rifted away from Gondwana. Farther east, Armorica, Aquitainia, Iberia and several European exotic continental blocks also rifted away, though it is unlikely that they all rifted at the same time. Between 460-430 Ma, peaking at ca 450 Ma, orogenic events involved continuing arc-continent collision(s). From 435-400 Ma the remaining parts of the Eastern Iapetus Ocean were destroyed and the collision of Baltica with Laurentia caused the 430-400 Ma Scandian orogeny, followed by suturing of these continents during the Siluro-Devonian Acadian orogeny or Late Caledonian orogeny to 380 Ma, leaving a smaller but new ocean south of the fragments that had collided with the Laurentian margin farther south. The Ligerian orogeny 390-370 Ma collision of Gondwana-derived Aquitaine-Cantabrian blocks with Eastern Avalonia-Baltica and removed the part of the Iapetus south of Baltica. Prior to any orogenic events, the Eastern Iapetus Ocean between Baltica and Laurentia may have resembled the present-day central Atlantic Ocean between Africa and North America. The ocean appears to have closed asymmetrically, with arcs forming first outboard of the western margin of Baltica while the East Greenland margin was unaffected. The Western Iapetus Ocean between Laurentia and Gondwana also closed asymmetrically with a dual arc system developing off Laurentia and an arc system forming off the northern margin of Gondwana. Like the Pacific Ocean today, the Eastern Iapetus Ocean had a longer and more complex history than the Western Iapetus Ocean: it was already in existence at 560 Ma, probably developed over at least 400 million years, by mid-Cambrian time was many thousands of kilometres wide at maximum extent, and was associated with a < 30 million year phase of marginal basin formation. In contrast, the Western Iapetus Ocean appears to have been much narrower, shorter lived (probably < 100 million years), and associated with the rifting to form two opposing passive carbonate margins, analogous to the Mesozoic Tethys or the present-day Mediterranean. 相似文献

Long-term variability of heat content (HC) in the upper 1,000 m of the Arctic Ocean is investigated using surface and subsurface
temperature and current data during 1958–2005 compiled by Simple Ocean Data Assimilation. Annual cycle of the Arctic Ocean
HC is controlled primarily by the negative and positive excursions in net upper ocean heat flux, while the inter-annual variability
is mainly associated with meridional thermal advection from the North Atlantic Ocean. Variability in HC is experienced as
a basin-wide cooling/warming in association with the Arctic Oscillation on a decadal time scale. In the first three dominant
modes of Empirical Orthogonal Function, the maximum amplitude of HC variability occurs in the Greenland–Norwegian Sea and
Eurasian Basin. In general, HC showed increasing trend during 1958–2005 indicating continuous warming with regional variations
in magnitude. 相似文献

南印度洋副热带偶极模（Subtropical Dipole Pattern,SDP）是印度洋存在的另一种很明显的偶极型海温差异现象,在年际和年代际尺度上均有十分明显的表现.而目前有关印度洋海气相互作用的研究主要集中在赤道印度洋地区,针对南印度洋地区的工作还比较少,特别是有关南印度洋海温与ENSO（El NiDo-Southern Oscillation）事件关系的研究.本文初步探讨了年际尺度上南印度洋副热带偶极型海温变化差异与ENSO事件的关系,发现SDP与ENSO事件有密切的联系,SDP事件就像连接正负ENSO位相转换的一个中间环节,SDP事件前后期ENSO的位相刚好完全相反.进一步,本文通过分析SDP事件前后期海温、高低层风、低层辐合辐散、高空云量和辐射等的变化特征研究了南印度洋偶极型海温异常在ENSO事件中的作用,结果表明：SDP在ENSO事件中的作用不仅涉及海气相互作用的正负反馈过程,还与热带和副热带大气环流之间的相互作用有关,特别是与东南印度洋海温变化所引起的异常纬向风由赤道印度洋向赤道太平洋传播的过程等有十分直接的关系;同时,SDP对ENSO事件的影响在很大程度上还依赖于大尺度平均气流随季节的变换. 相似文献

The measurement of unusual winter sprites in the Hokuriku area (Japan Sea side) was performed as a primary target of the 2006/2007 winter campaign by means of coordinated optical and extremely low frequency (ELF)/very high-frequency (VHF) electromagnetic observations. We have also added the same observations for the sprites in the Pacific Ocean, to be compared with the characteristics of Hokuriku sprites. The following results have emerged from this campaign: (i) the predominance of column sprites in winter has been confirmed not only for the Hokuriku area but also in the Pacific Ocean (with the probability just above 60%), (ii) carrots are much more frequently observed in the Pacific Ocean (with a probability of ～28%) than in the Hokuriku area (～16%), (iii) a very unique property of Hokuriku sprites is the surprisingly long delay (average ～90 ms) of sprites from their parent lightning flashes and the delays for carrots and columns exhibit some significant difference (80 ms for columns and 100 ms for carrots) and (iv) the time delay of Pacific Ocean sprites is much shorter (～43 ms average) than that at Hokuriku, but there is no remarkable difference in delay between carrots and columns. Finally we discussed the importance of time delay studies to understand sprite generations and their parent lightning discharges, because the difference of time delays on the Japan Sea side and in the Pacific Ocean are thought to be causally related to the parameters of parent thunderstorms. 相似文献

There is increasing interest in the magnitude of the flow of freshwater to the Arctic Ocean due to its impacts on the biogeophysical and socio‐economic systems in the north and its influence on global climate. This study examines freshwater flow based on a dataset of 72 rivers that either directly or indirectly contribute flow to the Arctic Ocean or reflect the hydrologic regime of areas contributing flow to the Arctic Ocean. Annual streamflow for the 72 rivers is categorized as to the nature and location of the contribution to the Arctic Ocean, and composite series of annual flows are determined for each category for the period 1975 to 2015. A trend analysis is then conducted for the annual discharge series assembled for each category. The results reveal a general increase in freshwater flow to the Arctic Ocean with this increase being more prominent from the Eurasian rivers than from the North American rivers. A comparison with trends obtained from an earlier study ending in 2000 indicates similar trend response from the Eurasian rivers, but dramatic differences from some of the North American rivers. A total annual discharge increase of 8.7 km3/y/y is found, with an annual discharge increase of 5.8 km3/y/y observed for the rivers directly flowing to the Arctic Ocean. The influence of annual or seasonal climate oscillation indices on annual discharge series is also assessed. Several river categories are found to have significant correlations with the Arctic Oscillation, the North Atlantic Oscillation, or the Pacific Decadal Oscillation. However, no significant association with climate indices is found for the river categories leading to the largest freshwater contribution to the Arctic Ocean. 相似文献

The Neo-Tethys Ocean was an eastward-gaping triangular oceanic embayment between Laurasia to the north and Gondwana to the south.The Neo-Tethys Ocean was initiated from the Early Permian with mircoblocks rifted from the northern margin of Gondwana.As the microblocks drifted northwards,the Neo-Tethys Ocean was expanded.Most of these microblocks collided with the Eurasia continent in the Late Triassic,leading to the final closure of the Paleo-Tethys Ocean,followed by oceanic subduction of the Neo-Tethys oceanic slab beneath the newly formed southern margin of the Eurasia continent.As the splitting of Gondwana continued,African-Arabian,Indian and Australian continents were separated from Gondwana and moved northwards at different rates.Collision of these blocks with the Eurasia continent occurred at different time during the Cenozoic,resulting in the closure of the Neo-Tethys Ocean and building of the most significant Alps-Zagros-Himalaya orogenic belt on Earth.The tectonic evolution of the Neo-Tethys Ocean shows different characteristics from west to east:Multi-oceanic basins expansion,bidirectional subduction and microblocks collision dominate in the Mediterranean region;northward oceanic subduction and diachronous continental collision along the Zagros suture occur in the Middle East;the Tibet and Southeast Asia are characterized by multi-block riftings from Gondwana and multi-stage collisions with the Eurasia continent.The negative buoyancy of subducting oceanic slabs can be considered as the main engine for northward drifting of Gondwana-derived blocks and subduction of the Neo-Tethys Ocean.Meanwhile,mantle convection and counterclockwise rotation of Gondwana-derived blocks and the Gondwana continent around an Euler pole in West Africa in non-free boundary conditions also controlled the evolution of the Neo-Tethys Ocean. 相似文献

Total dissolved chromium concentrations have been determined for four vertical profiles from Baffin Bay, the Labrador Sea and the northwest Atlantic Ocean. Chromium concentrations of 3.3 to 5.2 nM are found. While the vertical distribution of chromium in the study area is largely controlled by advective processes, the profiles show a small depletion in surface water with increase to a more constant level at depth. Surface depletion and correlations between chromium and nutrients indicate biogeochemical cycling of chromium. At one station, close to the Gibbs fracture zone, a distinct chromium maximum is observed. This feature centred at 3200 m is deeper than the core of the ambient water mass which is advected westward from the Eastern Basin of the Atlantic Ocean through the Gibbs fracture zone. 相似文献

Summary Barometric anomalies for stations near the Indian Ocean since 1841 are tabulated and combined for years and half-years. Early records for India yield a further series back to 1796. Regional anomalies for the west Indian Ocean correlate inversely with Nile Flood data, and those for the east Indian Ocean inversely with Java tree-rings. Combined values (including Australia), if reversed, correlate well with such rainfall indicators and at the same time provide good indicators of the half-yearly anomalies of the Southern Oscillation and the yearly anomalies of the Pressure Parameter. The Pressure Parameter is an index linked also with tropical temperature changes and with climatic fluctuations in various parts of the world.
Zusammenfassung Luftdruckwerte für Orte im Gebiete des Indischen Ozeans seit 1841 wurden zusammengestellt in Tabellen jährlicher und halbjährlicher Anomalien. Frühe Aufzeichnungen in Indien sind erhältlich seit 1796. Regionale Anomalien des Luftdruckes im westlichen Indischen Ozean sind umgekehrt korreliert mit der Nilflut, solche im östlichen Indischen Ozean mit den Jahresringbreiten von Bäumen auf Java. Kombinierte Luftdruckanomalien (Australien eingeschlossen) sind umgekehrt korreliert mit solcherart Indikatoren des Niederschlags und ergeben zur gleichen Zeit gute Anweisungen für die halbjährlichen Anomalien der sogenannten Südlichen Schwankung und der jährlichen Anomalien eines gewissen Luftdruckparameters. Der Luftdruckparameter ist verbunden mit tropischen Temperaturänderungen und klimatischen Schwankungen in verschiedenen Weltteilen.相似文献

Energy Decay of the 2004 Sumatra Tsunami in the World Ocean 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

The catastrophic Indian Ocean tsunami generated off the coast of Sumatra on 26 December 2004 was recorded by a large number
of tide gauges throughout the World Ocean. This study uses gauge records from 173 sites to examine the characteristics and
energy decay of the tsunami waves from this event in the Indian, Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Findings reveal that the decay
(e-folding) time of the tsunami wave energy within a given oceanic basin is not uniform, as previously reported, but depends
on the absorption characteristics of the shelf adjacent to the coastal observation site and the time for the waves to reach
the site from the source region. In general, the decay times for island and open-ocean bottom stations are found to be shorter
than for coastal mainland stations. Decay times for the 2004 Sumatra tsunami ranged from about 13 h for islands in the Indian
Ocean to 40–45 h for mainland stations in the North Pacific. 相似文献

Based on reanalysis data, we find that the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) plays an important role in the variability of wave climate in the equatorial Northern Indian Ocean (NIO). Significant wave height (SWH) in the equatorial NIO, especially over the waters southeast to Sri Lanka, exhibits strong interannual variations. SWH anomalies in the waters southeast to Sri Lanka correlate well with dipole mode index (DMI) during both summer and autumn. Negative SWH anomalies occur over the oceanic area southeast to Sri Lanka during positive IOD events and vary with different types of IOD. During positive prolonged (unseasonable) IOD, the SWH anomalies are the strongest in autumn (summer); while during positive normal IOD, the SWH anomalies are weak in both summer and autumn. Strong easterly wind anomalies over the southeast oceanic area of Sri Lanka during positive IOD events weaken the original equatorial westerly wind stress, which leads to the decrease in wind-sea waves. The longer wave period during positive IOD events further confirms less wind-sea waves. The SWH anomaly pattern during negative IOD events is nearly opposite to that during positive IOD events. 相似文献
