Abstract:
The central Pacific (CP) zonal wind divergence and convergence indices are defined, and the forming mechanism of CP El Niño (La Niña) events is discussed preliminarily. The results show that the divergence and convergence of the zonal wind anomaly (Z...
An upper ocean response to Typhoon Bolaven analyzed with Argo profiling floats
LIU Zenghong, XU Jianping, SUN Chaohui, WU Xiaofen
