from the smoothed background wind field u bg alone [i.e., for stress from (9) with u o = 0 everywhere] is O (1) cm day −1 . e. Estimation of SST-induced Ekman pumping The SST fields used in this study are the optimally interpolated SST analyses produced by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Climatic Data Center. Microwave and infrared satellite observations were combined with in situ measurements of SST to obtain daily, global fields on a ¼° × ¼° grid
