Time-longitude SST anomaly ((a), (b), (c)) (°C) and HC anomaly ((d), (e), (f)) (KJ·cm−2) averaged over 2.5°S–12.5°S for the periods January–June of 2004 (top), 2005 (middle), and 2006 (bottom). Positive values are shaded. The horizontal signatures of the twelve selected EW events are shown by dashed lines.
