Rectification of the Intraseasonal SST Variability by the Diurnal Cycle of SST Revealed by the Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array

Yunwei Yan et al.

Summary: The study found that intraseasonal SST variability in tropical oceans is amplified by dSST, with different responses in different regions. In the warm pool region, SST responds to atmospheric changes, leading to amplified intraseasonal fluctuations, while in the cold tongue region, SST drives atmospheric changes, resulting in inhibited intraseasonal variability.

Roles of Shear and Convection in Driving Mixing in the Ocean

Gregory N. Ivey et al.

Summary: This study considers the roles of shear and convection in driving mixing in the density-stratified ocean, finding that different mechanisms dominate at different Richardson numbers. It also presents a modified version of the empirical KPP model for parameterizing ocean mixing in numerical models.

Diurnal Ocean Surface Warming Drives Convective Turbulence and Clouds in the Atmosphere

Simon P. de Szoeke et al.

Summary: Sunlight warms sea surface temperature and increases atmospheric turbulence and mixed layer depth in the afternoon. The turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate in the marine atmospheric mixed layer scales with surface buoyancy flux. Additionally, diurnal atmospheric convective turbulence mixes moisture from the ocean to form clouds in the afternoon.

The role of double-diffusive convection in basal melting of Antarctic ice shelves

Madelaine Gamble Rosevear et al.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of double-diffusive convection in controlling ice shelf melt rates and oceanic mixed layer properties in warm and low-velocity cavity environments beneath ice shelves. The findings suggest that current ice-ocean parameterizations underestimate melt rates by neglecting the role of double-diffusive convection, which is identified as a primary process in the oceanic melting of ice shelves.
