Sea surface height propagates eastward at the equator and westward off the equator.
“One is that sea surface height propagates eastward at the equator and westward off the equator, as shown by Schouten et al. [2005].”

At eastern and western boundaries, Kelvin and Rossby wave contributions are in phase with each other, indicating the importance of boundary reflections.
“At eastern and western boundaries, Kelvin and Rossby wave contributions are in phase with each other, indicating the importance of boundary reflections [Schouten et al., 2005].”

The seasonal cycle contributes to over a half of the total variability in sea surface height.
“The seasonal cycle contributes to over a half of the total variability in SSH [Schouten et al., 2005].”

Schouten et al. (2005) found that sea level variations have the same westward phase speed as the first meridional mode Rossby of the second baroclinic mode at 4°N and 4°S.

They are reflected as a Kelvin wave on the western boundary and propagate eastward through the whole basin in September and October at the equator.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
