Barycenter reflected equatorial Pacific sea level structure evolution and its indication of ENSO events by Wen Luo, Lin Yi, Zhaoyuan Yu, Hui Sun, Linwang Yuan

“…Focused on the zonal and meridional response of sea level change to El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events, this paper retrieves the overall average, positive anomaly and negative anomaly sea surface height (SSH) series of equatorial Pacific area (EPA) from satellite altimetry data from 1993 to 2013. The barycenter method is then applied to each of the three series to get the zonal and meridional barycenter coordinates. …”
