IndicesTG PDO 0.47/11 -WP 0.33/23 Nino3.4 0.26/13 *All exceed 95% significant level “TG” (= ik ) = SL Ish -SL Kee (m) -3.5Sv +3.5Sv (m)

TG correlates with eddy zone: Corr(TG,SSHA) ~ 0.58/5mo + SSHA-> TG increases - SSHA-> TG decreases SSHA is due to eddies. Corr(SSHA,EKE) ~ 0.68/0 Kuroshio transport increases: Eddy-rich years More warm eddies eddy zone
4
Does OFES give similar responses? No correlation between OFES & Obs TG: (a). its eddy activity is different from AVISO; (b). obs. TG is not directly wind-driven. OFES AVISO OFES: Resolution: 0.1 deg Forcing: NCEP Data: monthly mean Corr(OFES,TG) = 0.03
5
OFES OFES TG (a)correlates well with its own eddy zone: warm eddies increased transport etc; but… (b)SSHA & EKE do NOT correlate (-0.07); (a)&(b) Something else other than eddies – Rossby waves? Also, suggests different responses w/SSHA in SCS and PS (than those shown in AVISO). AVISO

How are SCS/PS driven? How do SCS/PS relate to TG and eddy zone? ~S. Center of the WP index. ~Ym and/or ENSO index. Corr. ECMWF Wind stress curl 360d low-pass, 5degx5geg, 1980~2008 Note the negative correlation in SCS, which is inconsistent with Corr(TG,SSHA) < 0 found earlier. Therefore: SCS can’t be curl-driven
