Applying segment-wise altimetry-based gravest empirical mode method to expendable bathythermograph temperature, Argo salinity, and altimetric sea surface height data in March, June, and November from San Francisco to near Japan (30° N, 145° E) via Honolulu, we estimated the component of the heat transport variation caused by change in the southward interior geostrophic flow of the North Pacific subtropical gyre in the top 700 m layer during 1993–2012. The volume transport-weighted temperature (TI) is strongly dependent on the season. The anomaly of TI from the mean seasonal variation, whose standard deviation is 0.14°C, was revealed to be caused mainly by change in the volume transport in a potential density layer of 25.0?25.5σ??. The anomaly of TI was observed to vary on a decadal or shorter, i.e., quasi-decadal (QD), timescale. The QD-scale variation of TI had peaks in 1998 and 2007, equivalent to the reduction in the net heat transport by 6 and 10 TW, respectively, approximately 1 year before those of sea surface temperature (SST) in the warm pool region, east of the Philippines. This suggests that variation in TI affects the warm pool SST through modification of the heat balance owing to the entrainment of southward transported water into the mixed layer. 相似文献

The accuracy of the manufacturer’s fall-rate equation for the T-5 Model of expendable bathythermograph (XBT) has been investigated based on about 300 collocated pairs of XBT-CTD (Conductivity-Temperature-Depth profiler) measurements in various climatological regions. We found that the equation systematically overestimates depth by about 5% for the T-5 produced by Tsurumi Seiki, Co. Ltd. (TSK), but almost no bias is associated with the T-5 produced by Sippican, Inc., in USA. The cause of this difference is not clear, because the two manufacturers’ T-5 probes are reported to have identical shape and weight in water. We propose a new fall-rate equation for the TSK T-5: z(t) = 6.54071t - 0.0018691t
2, where z(t) is depth in meters at time, t, in seconds. 相似文献

The accuracy of temperature measurement by the expendable bathythermograph (XBT) is examined for five types of recorders by
comparison with co-located CTD measurements and statistical analysis of temperature profiles including an isothermal layer.
A positive temperature error increasing downward is occasionally detected for two types of Japanese recorder which have been
commonly used among Japanese oceanographic institutions and marine observatories. This error resembles to that reported by
Bailey et al. (1989) and Wright (1991) for a different type of recorders, although its cause is not clearly understood. The irregular
occurrence of the error suggests that the problem is not solely due to the recorders but rather by some inconsistency of the
whole measuring system including them, an XBT probe and sea water. The error is estimated to increase at a rate of O (0.1°C/100 m), and it could be close to 1°C at the deepest part of the profiles (760 m for Tsurumi T-7).

A new set of multi-channel sea surface temperature (MCSST) equations for the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on NOAA-9 is derived from regression analyses between two-channel brightness temperatures andin situ SST obtained from moored buoys around Japan. Two equations are derived: one for daytime and the other for nighttime. They are linear split window type and both the equations contain a term dependent on satellite zenith angle, which has not been accounted for in the previous daytime split window equations for NOAA-9. It is shown that the new set of equation can give SSTs in much better precision than those without the zenith-angle-dependent terms. It is also found that the split window equation for NOAA-9 provided by the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration/National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service (NOAA/NESDIS) considerably underestimates the daytime SSTs; sometimes nighttime SSTs are evenhigher than daytime SSTs. This is because the zenith angle effect to the radiation deficiet is neglected in the daytime equation by NOAA/NESDIS. By using the new MCSST equations, it is expected that the quality of satellite MCSST would be much improved, at least in regional applications around Japan, for the period of NOAA-9's operation. 相似文献

We have constructed ocean surface data sets using mainly satellite data and called them Japanese Ocean Flux data sets with
Use of Remote sensing Observations (J-OFURO). The data sets include shortwave radiation, longwave radiation, latent heat flux,
sensible heat flux, and momentum flux etc. This article introduces J-OFURO and compares it with other global flux data sets
such as European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) and National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP)
reanalysis data and da Silva et al. (1994). The usual ECMWF data are used for comparison of zonal wind. The comparison is carried out for a meridional profile
along the dateline for January and July 1993. Although the overall spatial variation is common for all the products, there
is a large difference between them in places. J-OFURO shortwave radiation in July shows larger meridional contrast than other
data sets. On the other hand, J-OFURO underestimates longwave radiation flux at low- and mid-latitudes in the Southern Hemisphere.
J-OFURO latent heat flux in January overestimates at 10°N–20°N and underestimates at 25°N–40°N. Finally, J-OFURO shows a larger
oceanic net heat loss at 10°N–20°N and a smaller loss north of 20°N in January. The data of da Silva et al. in July show small net heat loss around 20°S and large gain around 20°N, while the NCEP reanalysis (NRA) data show the opposite.
The da Silva et al. zonal wind speed overestimates at low-latitudes in January, while ECMWF wind data seem to underestimate the easterlies.

The probability distribution of the sea surface slope has been estimated using sun glitter images derived from the visible
wavelength radiometer on the Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS) and surface vector winds observed by spaceborne
scatterometers. The brightness of the visible images is converted to the probability of wave surfaces which reflect the sunlight
toward GMS in grids of 0.25° × 0.25° (latitude × longitude). The slope and azimuth angle required for the reflection of the
sun's rays toward GMS are calculated for each grid from the geometry of GMS observation and location of the sun. The GMS images
are then collocated with surface wind data observed by three scatterometers. Using the collocated data set of about 30 million
points obtained in a period of 4 years from 1995 to 1999, the probability distribution function of the surface slope is estimated
as a function of wind speed and azimuth angle relative to the wind direction. The results are compared with those of Cox and
Munk (1954a). The surface slope estimated by the present method shows a narrower distribution and much less directivity relative
to the wind direction than that reported by Cox and Munk. It is expected that their data were obtained under conditions of
growing wind waves. In general, wind waves are not always developing, and the slope distribution might differ from the results
of Cox and Munk. Most of our data are obtained in the subtropical seas under clear-sky conditions. This difference in the
conditions may be the reason for the difference of slope distribution.

Systematic errors in the estimation of surface, insolation,Q, by two popular empirical formulas are investigated statistically by using coincident measurements of the global solar radiation
and the total cloud cover at JMA observatories over Japan. The results show that Reed’s (1977) widely-accepted formula remarkably
overestimatesQ under overcast conditions. The overestimation is particularly evident in the summer months. The formula also overestimatesQ in cloud-free conditions, which may be due to an overestimation of the clear-sky transmittance by Seckel and Beaudry, (1973).
By contrast, Kondo and Miura’s (1985) formula underestimatesQ under overcast conditions, whereas it slightly overestimates in partially cloudy conditions. It is shown that these systematic
errors can explain some, of the published differences between the estimation ofQ by the two formulas. The users of these formulas should be careful since these cloudiness-dependent errors can contaminate
not only the absolute values but also the temporal anomalies or the spatial variability of the insolation, predicted by them.
In particular, it can be serious in regions of dense cloud cover such as the northern North Pacific, the northern North Atlantic
and the Southern Ocean. It is also shown that the ratio ofQ to the insolation at the top of the atmosphere,Q
TOA, takes on a range of values, particularly under dense cloud cover. This implies an inherent difficulty in estimation ofQ by a simple empirical formula utilizing only readily-available observables such as cloudiness. 相似文献

We investigated the sea level response of the Japan Sea to changes in atmospheric pressure using barotropic shallow water
models driven by idealized synoptic pressure forcing. The regional response lags behind the synoptic pressure forcing because
the adjustment is slowly established by water exchange through narrow, shallow straits. The sea level response of the realistic
Japan Sea to the idealized forcing varies with geographical location and shows zonally asymmetric variations in amplitude
and phase. The simulated response is in good agreement with the observed response of sea level recorded at Japanese coastal
tide gauges. The results of a simple one-dimensional model indicate that the zonally asymmetric pattern, with an eastward-propagating
pressure system, is essentially caused by bottom friction in shallow straits. This asymmetry arises if the typical wavelength
of the synoptic pressure system is slightly larger than the spatial scale of the Japan Sea. 相似文献

Baroclinic variations of the southward flow in the interior region of the North Pacific subtropical gyre are presented with
five hydrographic sections from San Francisco to near Japan during 2004–2006. The volume transport averaged temperature of
the interior flow, which varies vigorously by a maximum of 0.8°C, is negatively correlated with the transport in the layer
of density 24.5–26.5σ
θ, associated with changes in the vertical current structure. Transport variation in this density layer is thus mainly responsible
for the thermal impact of the interior flow on the heat transport of the subtropical gyre. 相似文献
