While it is well known that the ocean is one of the most important component of the climate system, with a heat capacity 1,100 times greater than the atmosphere, the ocean is also the primary reservoir for freshwater transport to the atmosphere and largest component of the global water cycle. Two new satellite sensors, the ESA Soil Moisture and Oce...

Hydrographic observations of pressure, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler measurements are used to study the upper circulation in the Western equatorial Atlantic Ocean, limited to the region bounded by the 10°S and 14°N latitudes between the longitudes 30°W and 52°W. Data were obtained during fo...
