Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature and Size Variabilities of the Western Pacific Warm Pool
TL;DR: Variabilities in sea-surface temperature and size of the Western Pacific Warm Pool were tracked with 10 years of satellite multichannel sea- Surface temperature observations from 1982 to 1991 and show that both annual mean sea- surface temperature and the size ofthe warm pool increased from 1983 to 1987 and fluctuated after 1987.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theoretical expression for an ocean internal soliton synthetic aperture radar image and determination of the soliton characteristic half width
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived a theoretical model of a radar image for a Korteweg-de Vries type ocean internal soliton and validated the model using ocean internal wave signals taken from ERS-1 SAR and RADARSAT SAR images.
Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical and dynamical analysis of internal waves on the continental shelf of the Middle Atlantic Bight from space shuttle photographs
TL;DR: In this paper, the internal wave field in the sample area has a three-level structure which consists of packet groups, packets, and solitons, and an average packet group wavelength of 17.5 km and average soliton wavelength of 0.6 km are measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coastal lee waves on ERS-1 SAR images
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors recognized the sea surface signature of a coastal lee wave using ERS-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images of the west side of the Taiwan Strait taken on December 8, 1994.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear evolution of ocean internal solitons propagating along an inhomogeneous thermocline
TL;DR: In this paper, Tappert et al. analyzed the evolution of ocean internal solitary waves passing over a seamount in the Gulf of Aden and found that a surprisingly sharp recess of an internal solitary wave packet, imaged by the space shuttle Discovery, is a signature of spatial phase delay caused by thermocline shoaling over the seamount.
