The Sensitivity of the Arctic Ocean Sea Ice Thickness and Its Dependence on the Surface Albedo Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, the response of sea ice thickness to changes in the external forcing is investigated and particularly how this response depends on the surface albedo formulation by means of a one-dimensional coupled ...
Potential-Vorticity Characteristics of the Faroe Bank Channel Deep-Water Overflow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results from a 71-day deployment of three ADCP current meters on a section across the sill region of the Faroe Bank Channel are reported. The characteristic density structure of the channel, with warm, highly saline North ...
Comments on “Is the Faroe Bank Channel Overflow Hydraulically Controlled?”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a recent paper Girton et al., due to what appears to be a misunderstanding, stated that a critical-flow analysis of the deep-water transport through the Faroe Bank Channel had been undertaken by Lake et al. on the basis ...
On the Intermediate Water Masses of the Faroe–Bank Channel Overflow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A review of available hydrographic data from the Faroe?Bank Channel indicates that North Icelandic/Arctic Intermediate water masses are present in the passage to a larger extent than was previously believed. The presently ...
