From: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology  |  Date: 8/1/2005  |  Author: Mitchell, Douglas A; Tracey, Karen L; Watts, D Randolph; Park, Jae-Hun

ABSTRACT

This paper demonstrates a new gravest empirical mode (GEM) technique that constructs multi-index lookup tables of temperature (T) and specific volume anomalies (δ) using historical hydrocasts as a function of three indices: round-trip travel time (τ) from sea floor to the surface, sea surface temperature, and pressure. Moreover, the historical hydrocasts are separated into non-mixed-layer (NML) and mixed-layer (ML) groups, and a single GEM field is constructed for each group. ...
