AbstractIn this wok, the satellite-derived Upper Layer Heat Content (ULH) is estimated for the Equatorial Atlantic. This is achieved combining Sea High Anomalies (SHA) from AVISO, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) from the TRMM Microwave Imager, and climatological subsurface data from the World Ocean Atlas 2001 (WOA01) to a regional reduced gravity model. Maps of ULH are generated from 1992 to 2006. These maps are potentially important to study the heat storage variability in the area of study. In order to validate de satellite-derived ULH data, a comparison between satellite-derived upper layer data and independent in situ data from Pilot Research Moored Array in the Atlantic (PIRATA) is performed. Due to the availability of PIRATA data, this comparison is done for the years 1998 to 2006. The results show that the satellite-derived ULT and ULH are highly correlated to their in situ counterparts at short to long time scales in general. The seasonal in situ- and satellite-derived ULT and ULH are also estimated allowing the investigation of the interannual variability of ULH anomalies (ULHA) at the three selected PIRATA mooring sites: (0N,23W), (6S,10W) and (8N,38W). Results of PIRATA buoys which behave similarly to the ones described here are not shown. The ULHA show a tendency for positive warmer anomalies starting from 2003 on, except at the PIRATA buoy located at (6S,10W). The results indicate that this satellite-derived methodology is a valuable tool to study climate variability on the Equatorial Atlantic due to its spatial and temporal coverage. We believe that merging the PIRATA data into the WOA01 database could further improve the method.
