(a) The difference of mixed layer depth (m: shading) between the periods before the AR event (February 1–3, 2015) and after the event (February 8–10, 2015), and winds (m/s) at 10 m (arrows) on February 6, 2015. (b) Same as (a) except the shading indicates SST (°C) from OAFlux. (c) Evaporation (mm/day: shading) on February 5–7, 2015, winds (m/s) at 10 m (arrows) on February 6, and total column integrated water vapor (contour) on February 6. The contour starts from 20 mm and the interval is 4 mm. (d) Saturation specific humidity at the sea surface (qs) minus specific humidity at 2 m (qa) from OAFlux (e) SST on February 5–7, 2015 from OAFlux (f) Specific humidity at 2 m (g/kg: shading) on February 5–7, 2015, and winds (m/s) at 10 m (arrows) on February 6.
