ENSO-induced co-variability of Salinity, Plankton Biomass and Coastal Currents in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
Fabian A. Gomez,Fabian A. Gomez,Fabian A. Gomez,Sang-Ki Lee,Frank J. Hernandez,Luciano M. Chiaverano,Frank E. Muller-Karger,Yanyun Liu,John T. Lamkin +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that El Niño - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a main driver of the interannual variability in salinity and plankton biomass during winter and spring and is closely interlinked with ENSO-induced changes in Salinity, plankon biomass, and coastal circulation across the northern GoM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pacific origin of the abrupt increase in Indian Ocean heat content during the warming hiatus
Sang-Ki Lee,Sang-Ki Lee,Wonsun Park,Molly O. Baringer,Arnold L. Gordon,Bruce A. Huber,Yanyun Liu,Yanyun Liu +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed observations along with simulations from a global ocean sea ice model to track the pathway of heat in the Indian Ocean and found that the enhanced heat uptake by the Pacific Ocean has been compensated by an increased heat transport from the Pacific ocean to the Indian ocean, carried by the Indonesian throughflow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural Variability of Surface Oceanographic Conditions in the Offshore Gulf of Mexico
Frank E. Muller-Karger,Joseph P. Smith,Sandra Werner,Robert F. Chen,Mitchell A. Roffer,Yanyun Liu,Yanyun Liu,Barbara A. Muhling,Barbara A. Muhling,David Lindo-Atichati,John T. Lamkin,Sergio Cerdeira-Estrada,David B. Enfield +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine remote-sensing based observations of sea surface temperature (SST), wind speed, sea surface height anomaly (SSHA), chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a) and Net Primary Production (NPP), along with model predictions of mixed layer depth (MLD), to determine seasonal changes and long-term trends in the central Gulf of Mexico between the early 1980s and 2012.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting the effects of climate change on bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) spawning habitat in the Gulf of Mexico
Barbara A. Muhling,Barbara A. Muhling,Sang-Ki Lee,Sang-Ki Lee,John T. Lamkin,Yanyun Liu,Yanyun Liu +6 more
TL;DR: Muhling et al. as discussed by the authors predicted the effects of climate change on bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) spawning habitat in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM), and quantified the potential effects of warming on the suitability of the GOM as a spawning ground.
Journal ArticleDOI
Downscaled projections of Caribbean coral bleaching that can inform conservation planning
Ruben van Hooidonk,Ruben van Hooidonk,Jeffrey Maynard,Jeffrey Maynard,Yanyun Liu,Yanyun Liu,Sang-Ki Lee,Sang-Ki Lee +7 more
TL;DR: The dynamically downscaled projections suggest an earlier onset of ASB linked to projected changes in regional currents, a feature not resolved in GCMs, demonstrates the value of dynamical downscaling for this application and means statistically downscales projections have to be interpreted with caution.
