      Influences of time-dependent precipitation on water mass transformation, heat fluxes, and deep convection in marginal seas 

      Yasuda, Yuki; Spall, Michael A. (American Meteorological Society, 2015-07)
      Influences of time-dependent precipitation on water mass transformation and heat budgets in an idealized marginal sea are examined using theoretical and numerical models. The equations proposed by Spall in 2012 are extended ...

      Implications of North Atlantic sea surface salinity for summer precipitation over the U.S. Midwest : mechanisms and predictive value 

      Li, Laifang; Schmitt, Raymond W.; Ummenhofer, Caroline C.; Karnauskas, Kristopher B. (American Meteorological Society, 2016-04-19)
      Moisture originating from the subtropical North Atlantic feeds precipitation throughout the Western Hemisphere. This ocean-to-land moisture transport leaves its imprint on sea surface salinity (SSS), enabling SSS over the ...
