On the effect of the sampling frequency of sea level measurements on return period estimate of extremes—Southern European examples (2009)

Tsimplis, M.N., Marcos, M., Pérez, B., Challenor, P., Garcia-Fernandez, M.J., Raicich, F.

Estimates of extreme sea levels and return periods have been based mainly on hourly sampling rates. Technological development has enabled the sampling rates to increase and sampling rates of 5–10...

Abstract Remote Visualisation of Large Oceanic Datasets (2007)

Lj West, J Stark, Pd Killworth, P Challenor, J Marotzke

The global high-resolution ocean model, OCCAM, has been run by D. Webb and colleagues at the Southampton Oceanography Centre (SOC) for many years. It was configured to resolve the energetic scales of...

The probability of rapid climate change: II (2007)

Challenor, P.

In Significance December 2004, Peter Challenor described the statistical problem associated with the possible collapse in the thermohaline circulation in the North Atlantic—"the shutting down of...

Towards measuring the meridional overturning circulation from space (2007)

Cromwell, D., Shaw, A. G. P., Challenor, P., Houseago-Stokes, R. E., Tokmakian, R.

We present a step towards measuring the meridional overturning circulation (MOC), i.e. the full-depth water mass transport, in the North Atlantic using satellite data. Using the Parallel Ocean...

A Rotating Knife-beam Altimeter for Wide-swath Remote Sensing of Ocean: Wind and Waves (2006)

V. Yu. Karaev, M. B. Kanevsky, G. N. Balandina, E. M. Meshkov, P. Challenor, Meric Srokosz, ...

The use of a nadir altimeter radar with a rotating knife-beam antenna pattern isconsidered for improved measurements of the sea surface wind and wave parameters over awide swath. Theoretical...

Statistical assessment of numerical models (2002)

Fuentes, M., Guttorp, P., Challenor, P.

Evaluation of physically based computer models for air quality applications is crucial to assist in control strategy selection. The high risk of getting the wrong control strategy has costly economic...

Rossby waves detected in global ocean colour data (2001)

Cipollini, P., Cromwell, D., Challenor, P., Raffaglio, S.

We demonstrate for the first time the detectability of mid-latitude Rossby waves in global ocean colour data from the Japanese Ocean Colour and Temperature Scanner (OCTS) and U.S. Sea-viewing Wide...

Seasonal and inter-annual sea surface height variations of the northern Indian Ocean from the TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter (1998)

PrasannaKumar, S., Snaith, H., Challenor, P., Guymer, H.T.

The seasonal and inter-annual variability of the northern Indian Ocean was studied by analysing 10-day snapshots of sea surface height (SSH) data from TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter for the period November...
