h-lean conditions, seasonal, and ENSO-related (El Nine Southern Oscillation) variability in the vicinity of Wallis, Futuna, and Samoa islands (13 degrees-15 degrees S, 180 degrees-170 degrees W) over the 1973-1995 period are analysed for wind pseudostress, satellite-derived and in situ precipitation, sea surface temperature (SST) and salinity (SSS), sea level, and 0-450 m temperature and geostrophic current. The mean local conditions reflect the presence of the large scale features such as the western Pacific warm pool, the South Pacific Convergence Zone (SPCZ), and the South Pacific anticyclonic gyre. The seasonal changes are closely related to the meridional migrations of the SPCZ, which passes twice a year over the region of study. During the warm phase... |

The Thau lagoon, located in southern France, suffers episodically in summer from anoxic crises known as 'malaigues'. Such crises mostly occur under warm conditions and low winds. In this paper we investigated effects of local weather conditions (air temperature, wind speed and precipitation over southern France), and two climate oscillations (the North Atlantic Oscillation and the El Ni (n) over tildeo Oscillation) on malaigue occurrences based on 33-year data series and dates when malaigues appeared. The study shows that the probability of occurrence of malaigues increases with increasing temperature and decreasing winds in August both mostly associated to the high phase of an index of North Atlantic Oscillation. Malaigues are found to be frequently... |
