North Pacific Experiment (NORPAX) 



The long-term objective of NORPAX was to understand 



fluctuations in the upper layers of the North Pacific Ocean and 

 their relation to the overlying and adjoining atmosphere. These 

 fluctuations have time scales of months to years and a space scale 

 in excess of 1,000 km. Achievement of this goal should lead to 

 improved prediction of weather and climate for the northeast 

 Pacific Ocean and North America. NORPAX worked to attain its 

 long-range objective through analysis of historical data, experi- 

 ments to identify and understand important processes, monitor- 

 ing of low-frequency fluctuations, and integration of observations 

 with theoretical and numerical studies.
