A Decade of Eastern Tropical Indian Ocean Observation Network (TIOON)

A recent study in Bulletin of American Meteorological Society (BAMS) led by CLIVAR IORP member - Dr. Dongxiao Wang’s team (Zeng et al., 2021) briefly overviews the decadal progress of the eastern Tropical Indian Ocean Observing Network (TIOON), a persistent observation effort implemented by China.

Emerging Pattern of Wind Change over the Eurasian Marginal Seas Revealed by Three Decades of Satellite Ocean-Surface Wind Observations

Figure 1. Linear trends of surface winds (1988 – 2018)

Ocean surface winds play an important role in many oceanic and atmospheric processes, such as generating marine waves, driving ocean general circulation, and modulating air-sea heat, moisture, and gas fluxes. Meanwhile, winds over the marginal seas surrounding the Eurasian continent (Fig. 2) warrant special attention as ocean temperatures in these seas have increased at 2-3 times the rate of the global-ocean average.
