In this project, the P.I. will apply available numerical models of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, recent "gappy" boundary layer theory, and available wind, pressure, and sea level data to understanding the dynamics of ENSO (El Nino/Southern Oscillation), particularly in the region of the "gappy" western boundary. In particular, the P.I. will attempt to establish whether or not there is a link between reflection of waves from the western Pacific boundary and subsequent anomalies at the equator.

在这个项目中，P.I.将运用现有的印度洋和太平洋数值模型、最近的“间隙”边界层理论以及现有的风、气压和海平面数据来理解厄尔尼诺/南方涛动的动力学，特别是在“间隙”西边界区域。特别地，P.I.将试图确定来自西太平洋边界的波的反射与随后在赤道的异常之间是否存在联系。
