A model study of the seasonality of sea surface temperature and circulation in the Atlantic North-Eastern Tropical Upwelling System.
The climatological seasonal cycle of the sea surface temperature (SST) in the north-eastern tropical Atlantic (7-25°N, 26-12°W) is studied using a mixed layer heat budget in a regional ocean general circulation model. The region, which experiences one of the larger SST cycle in the tropics, forms th...
