PL44E:
Western Pacific and Indonesian Sea Circulation and Its Environmental and Climatic Impacts I Posters


Session ID#: 28326

Session Description:
The western Pacific warm pool is influenced strongly by the western boundary currents of the Pacific Ocean and the Indonesian Throughflow and plays a vital role in the ocean-atmosphere coupled evolution of the tropical oceans. This area has been the focus of recent ocean observations and climate studies aiming to better understand the dynamics and predictability of the variability in the Indo-Pacific ocean circulation and climate. This session seeks contributions on topics including oceanic circulation variability in the western tropical Pacific and eastern Indian Oceans, dynamics of the latest ENSO and IOD events, tropical-extratropical interactions, inter-basin interactions, the Indonesian Throughflow, and air-sea interactions associated with the warm pool. Also encouraged are contributions aimed at understanding the impact of the Indo-Pacific oceans on the variability and predictability of Asian, Australian, and African monsoons, typhoons, and multi-disciplinary studies at times scales ranging from diurnal, intra-seasonal, interannual, and decadal to the centennial impacts of global warming.
