El Niño Watch: A Comparison of Current Conditions with Past Events (September, 2015)
Anomalous ocean conditions in the Equatorial Pacific in 2015 are compared with past El Niño events to gain a potential sense about future El Niño development and related impacts.
Data in Action: El Niño Watch: A Comparison of Current Conditions with Past Events
A major El Niño event is developing in the Equatorial Pacific Ocean. The current oceanic state in the Equatorial Pacific is compared with previous El Niño events to gain a potential sense about future development and related impacts. Changes in sea level can be used as an indicator of the changes in the heat content, and changes in sea surface temperature (SST) are indicative of the coupling between the ocean and the atmosphere from wind forcing.
2015 Summer Interns
The saying "all good things must come to an end" rings true as PO.DAAC bids farewell to our amazing 2015 summer interns.

SPURS-1 FIELD CAMPAIGN DATASETS RELEASED
2015-05-11
The PO.DAAC is pleased to announce the availability of the SPURS-1 field campaign data. The SPURS (Salinity Processes in the Upper Ocean Regional Study) project is a series of science process studies and associated oceanographic field campaigns that, in conjunction with the Aquarius/SAC-D and SMOS satellite missions, aim to elucidate key mechanisms responsible for near-surface salinity variations in the oceans.
