Abstract: The decadal response of the ventilated thermocline to surface buoyancy forcing is investigated, using simplified mixed layer thermodynamics and two-layer planetary geostrophic dynamics. The model is forced by a stationary ...

Abstract: he present study analyses the spatial and temporal variability of zonally integrated meridional atmospheric heat transport due to transient eddies in a hierarchy of datasets. These are a highly idealised two-layer model ...

Abstract: The response of an ocean model of the subtropical and subpolar gyres to idealized surface forcing anomalies that mimic the thermal and mechanical forcing associated with the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is analyzed. ...

Abstract: This observational study focuses on remote forcing of the dominant pattern of north tropical Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies by ENSO and NAO. Based on a spring SST index of the north tropical Atlantic (NTA) ...
