CFC-12 and SF6 data were used in combination to estimate the mean age of water in the northern South China Sea (NSCS), to explore oceanographic processes related to "time," including the transit time through the Luzon Strait (LS) with a three-layer circulation structure and the apparent oxygen utilization rates (AOUR). Significant differences in me...

In the framework of a sea ice-ocean general circulation model coupled to an energy balance atmospheric model, an intensity oscillation of Southern Hemisphere (SH) westerly winds affects the global ocean circulation via not only the buoyancy-driven teleconnection (BDT) mode but also the Ekman-driven teleconnection (EDT) mode. The BDT mode is activat...
