Creator:: Strub, P. Ted and James, Corinne
Abstract:: Surface transports into the California Current are calculated from TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter surface height slopes during the 9.5 year period from October 1992–May 2002. These quantify the anomalous onshore and southward displacements of the water column during the 2000–2002 period, which had been hypothesized by others based on anomalous water properties...

Creator:: Strub, P. Ted, James, Corinne, Combes, Vincent, Matano, Ricardo P., Piola, Alberto R., Palma, Elbio D., Saraceno, Martin, Guerrero, Raul A., Fenco, Harold, and Ruiz-Etcheverry, Laura A.
Abstract:: Altimeter sea surface height (SSH) fields are analyzed to define and discuss the seasonal circulation over the wide continental shelf in the SW Atlantic Ocean (27°–43°S) during 2001–2012. Seasonal variability is low south of the Rio de la Plata (RdlP), where winds and currents remain equatorward for most of the...

Creator:: Strub, P. Ted, Chereskin, Teresa K., Niiler, Pearn P., James, Corinne, and Levine, Murray D.
Abstract:: In this paper, we evaluate the temporal and horizontal resolution of geostrophic surface velocities calculated from TOPEX satellite altimeter heights. Moored velocities (from vector-averaging current meters and an acoustic Doppler current profiler) at depths below the Ekman layer are used to estimate the temporal evolution and accuracy of altimeter geostrophic...

Creator:: Strub, P. Ted and James, Corinne
Abstract:: We examine large-scale atmospheric behavior around the time of the spring and fall transitions in the coastal ocean off the west coast of North America. Records of adjusted sea level (ASL), coastal wind stress, sea level atmospheric pressure (SLP), and 500-mbar heights for the years 1971-1975 and 1980-1983 are analyzed....

Creator:: Thomas, Andrew C., Strub, P. Ted, Weatherbee, Ryan A., and James, Corinne
Abstract:: Concurrent satellite-measured chlorophyll (CHL), sea surface temperature (SST), sea level anomaly (SLA) and model-derived wind vectors from the 13+ year SeaWiFS period September 1997 – December 2010 quantify time and space patterns of phytoplankton variability and its links to physical forcing in the Pacific Ocean. The CHL fields are a...

Creator:: Venegas, Roberto M., Strub, P. Ted, Beier, Emilio, Letelier, Ricardo M., Thomas, Andrew C., Cowles, Timothy J., James, Corinne, Soto-Mardones, Luis, and Cabrera, Carlos
Abstract:: Satellite-derived data provide the temporal means and seasonal and nonseasonal variability of four physical and biological parameters off Oregon and Washington (41°–48.5°N). Eight years of data (1998–2005) are available for surface chlorophyll concentrations, sea surface temperature (SST), and sea surface height, while six years of data (2000–2005) are available for...
