Atlantic Climate Change Program (ACCP) We wish to understand seasonal to decadal climate variability, assess ocean-atmosphere models with data and develop sampling strategies. We conduct cruises in the tropical Atlantic to support this research. |
 |
Benguela Current Experiment The main objective of this program is to study the pathways, velocity, transport and variability of the Benguela Current and its extension with emphasis on tracking floats in the intermediate water. |
 |
Climate Observing System for the Tropical Atlantic (COSTA) We are currently working on this page. Information on the recent workshop in Miami is available through this link. |
 |
Dynamics of the South East Atlantic Ocean Sea height anomaly data are used to derive upper ocean thickness and to track anticyclonic (warm) rings in the South East Atlantic during the Benguela Current Experiment. |
 |
Pan-American Climate Studies (PACS) We wish to understand the role of the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific oceans in the seasonal to interannual climate variability of the American Monsoon. |
 |
South Atlantic Climate Change (SACC) The main goal of the program is to understand the interactive relationship of the southwestern South Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) and the larger scale climate behavior. The SST is the oceanic variable that most influences the atmosphere, and therefore is a sensitive indicator of climate variability. |
