The coastal subtidal sea level was highly coherent from Sandy Hook to Montauk Point; a single empirical mode accounted for more than 97% of the variance. These coherent fluctuations were forced primarily by longshore winds (along 250-070°T) through the coastal Ekman effect. The bay sea level exhibited large and spatially coherent subtidal fluctuations as a result of a strong coupling with the adjacent shelf. The characteristic volume exchange associated with this coupling was an active simultaneous inflow or outflow through both ends of the bay (with fluctuations in excess of 20 cm s ~) in response to the rise or fall of coastal sea level induced by longshore winds.

FGGE observations suggest that strongly divergent local tropical circulations are forced by latent heating and directly modify the total wind field, supported by an analysis which decomposes the wind field into divergent and rotational components. The large contribution of the divergent wind is generally ignored in linear models, especially those addressing tropical-extratropical connections. This deficiency is examined by constructing a basic state that allows reasonable latitudinal evolution of the wind field. Analysis suggests a prominent role for gravity-inertia waves in the tropics and in the extratropical teleconnections. Dept. of Meteorol., Univ. of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT 84112, USA. (wbo)

scales. Part II. The tropical band. Mon. Weath. Rev., 112(12):2380-2387. The two wind systems are strongly coupled across the tropical latitudes (+30 ° of the Equator) at interannual time scales with coherent variations apparent in the surface wind field from Africa to South America. The equatorial regions appear coupled most strongly to the Southern Hemisphere. The apparent temporal bimodality in the nearequatorial band is absent for the full tropical band. There is only a slight preference for anomalous convergence over Indonesia. The eastward propagation of anomalous zonal wind in the equatorial region is still evident in this analysis. The results suggest that mechanisms other than those associated with the Pacific SST may be required to explain much of the variability described; the climatic signal under study is apparently only part of an even larger mode of climatic variability.
