英文摘要: A close relationship between tropical instability wave (TIW)-induced sea surface temperature (SST) and wind stress (τ) perturbations (SST TIW and τ TIW , respectively) has been identified from satellite observations. In this study, we applied an empirical TIW-induced wind stress model (τ x , τ y ) TIW =F(SST) to assess τ TIW feedback. This empirical model solves (τ x , τ y ) TIW from TIW-induced wind stress divergence and curl estimated from time-evolving downwind and crosswind SST gradients. The empirical model is incorporated into a high-resolution ocean model based on the Regional Ocean Modeling System, and the derived (τ x , τ y ) TIW can be added onto the climatological component to force the ocean model, by which the effect of τ TIW can be taken into account adequately. From a comparison of two experiments with and without the τ TIW effect, the τ TIW had a substantial effect on the equatorial Pacific heat budget, which affected the long-term mean SST, representing an approximate 0.2°C difference. An SST budget analysis suggested that the τ TIW influenced SST primarily via thermal advection and vertical mixing, the effects of which were both amplified with additional τ TIW feedback and almost counteracted each other. Analysis of two additional sensitivity experiments suggested that both TIW-induced wind stress divergence and curl components could induce comparable SST differences, with a little difference on that the latter tended to induce more salient SST cooling at the equator. © 2018 Royal Meteorological Society
