Abstract:The Indo-Pacific warm pool (IPWP) expansion under global warming has huge impacts on global climate. While recent studies have revealed the seasonal diversity of IPWP surface expansion and its climate impacts, understanding the changes in seasonality of the IPWP volume is of greater importance, especially given the crucial role of subsurface ocean in climate systems. Here, we find a significant difference in IPWP volume expansion rates across seasons from 1950–2020. The expansions of IPWP volume during boreal … Show more
