Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of the East India Coastal Current: 2. Numerical solutions
TL;DR: In this paper, a linear, continuously stratified model is used to investigate the dynamics of the East India Coastal Current (EICC), and solutions are found numerically in a basin that resembles the Indian Ocean basin north of 29°S.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of Indian Ocean sea-level change in a warming climate
Weiqing Han,Gerald A. Meehl,Balaji Rajagopalan,John T. Fasullo,Aixue Hu,Jialin Lin,William G. Large,Jih-Wang Wang,Xiao-Wei Quan,Laurie Trenary,Alan J. Wallcraft,Toshiaki Shinoda,Stephen Yeager +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, a combination of observations and climate-model simulations reveals a pattern of sea-level changes in the Indian Ocean, with a decrease in the southern tropical Indian Ocean and a rise elsewhere, that can be attributed to changes in atmospheric overturning circulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Indian Ocean Decadal Variability: A Review
Weiqing Han,Jérôme Vialard,Michael J. McPhaden,Tong Lee,Yukio Masumoto,Ming Feng,Will P. M. de Ruijter +6 more
TL;DR: The authors reviewed existing literature on these Indian Ocean variations, including observational evidence, physical mechanisms, and climatic impacts, and identified major issues and challenges for future Indian Ocean research on decadal and multidecadal variability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface Kuroshio path in the Luzon Strait area derived from satellite remote sensing data
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used satellite ocean color, sea surface temperature, and altimeter data to study the surface Kuroshio path in the Luzon Strait area, and they found that the dominant path of surface Kiroshio intrusion in winter is a direct route from northeast of Luzon to southwest of Taiwan and then westward along the continental slope of northern South China Sea.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of the East India Coastal Current. 1. Analytic solutions forced by interior Ekman pumping and local alongshore winds
TL;DR: In this paper, a linear, continuously stratified model is used to investigate how forcing by interior Ekman pumping and local alongshore winds affects the East India Coastal Current (EICC).
