Role of Sea Surface Physical Processes in Mixed-layer Temperature Changes During Summer Marine Heat Waves in the Chile-Peru Current System

Creator:

Cooley, Kylene M.

Abstract:

Development of marine heat waves (MHWs) in the Chile-Peru Current System (CPCS) is influenced by multiple physical processes at the air-sea interface whose individual role in these destructive events is difficult to infer. We identified MHW events from sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies from time periods of extreme ocean warming...
