Abstract

Equatorial ocean temperatures at long. 1650 W during 1957-1971 are presented. Their correlation with Canton Island surface wind is found to be -0.57, which is not so close as might be expected from a recent paper by Hires and Montgomery. When the annual cycles are removed, the correlation becomes - 0.69. The annual cycle of Canton Island wind shows a primary maximum in August and a secondary maximum in February-March, somewhat inverse to the previously found cycle of equatorial temperature.
