Interannual Variability in Warm Water Volume Transports in the Equatorial Pacific during 1993-99*

ABSTRACT

Previous studies have indicated that the volume of warm water (WWV) in the equatorial Pacific is intrinsically related to the dynamics of the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle. A gridded subsurface temperature dataset, which incorporates temperature measurements from expendable bathythermograph profiles as well as measurements from the moorings in the Tropical Atmosphere and Ocean Array, was used along with historical hydrography to quantify the variability of the WWV (with temperatures greater than 20 deg C) within the region 8 deg S-8 deg N, 156 deg E-95 deg W during ...
