Satellite Observations of the Sea Surface Salinity Response to Tropical Cyclones

Nicolas Reul et al.

Summary: Decade-long satellite observations show that different intensities and moving speeds of tropical cyclones result in varying sea surface salinity changes on their left and right sides, with the most intense storms causing salinification and being influenced by the vertical salinity gradient in the upper ocean and barrier layers.

Upper ocean response to tropical cyclones: a review

Han Zhang et al.

Summary: Tropical cyclones induce various responses in the upper ocean, including near-inertial currents, strong waves, changes in temperature and salinity, and plankton blooms. These responses are controlled by TC-induced mixing, advection, and surface flux, and usually recover within several days to weeks. The characteristics of the upper ocean response depend on TC parameters and environmental factors, and recent advancements in observation methods and numerical models have improved our understanding of these processes.
