TPOS2020 : Tropical Pacific Observing System for 2020
This paper presents the new international TPOS2020 project: why it has been established, what are its scientific objectives, its proposed organization, governance, and what the expected outcomes are. It is aiming at informing Coriolis, Mercator Océan, and the operational oceanography communities, all concerned, and involved in generating interest a...
Tropical Atlantic variability and climate
A homogeneous monthly data set of sea surface temperature (SST) and pseudo wind stress based on in situ observations is used to investigate the climatic trends over the tropical Atlantic during the last five decades (1964–2012). After a decrease of SST by about 1 °C during 1964–1975, most apparent in the northern tropical region, the entire tropica...

16ème groupe de travail sur les thons tropicaux
In this paper, we provide an update on the trends of climate and oceanographic conditions in the Indian Ocean, at both basin and regional scales. The ENSO cycle has been largely fluctuating between ENSO-neutral and Niña conditions during the past 4 year and is considered being in a neutral state in 2014. Forecast coupled models give a 58% chance th...
Influence of recent stratification changes on ENSO stability in a conceptual model of the Equatorial Pacific
Changes in the mean circulation of the equatorial Pacific Ocean partly control the strong decadal modulation of El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). This relationship is considered from the linear stability of a conceptual recharge/discharge model with parameters tuned from the observed mean state. Whereas decadal changes in the mean thermocline de...
