This data became instrumental in a number of studies, particularly around the Kuroshio Current.Template:Sfnp<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> As well as its direct oceanographic value, this data was also important for determining the scale of features of interest, thus influencing the design of later observational networks.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>

- Planetary wave dynamics
- Interdecadal oscillations and their relation to El Niño and La Niña<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref><ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
