Abstract: he meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is studied in an idealized domain with two basins connected by a circumpolar channel in the southernmost region. Flow is forced at the surface by longitude-independent wind stress, ...

Abstract: AbstractThe interbasin exchange of the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is studied in an idealized domain with two basins connected by a circumpolar channel in the southernmost region. Gnanadesikan?s conceptual ...

Abstract: AbstractThe salt transport by the wind-driven gyres and the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is studied in an idealized-geometry primitive equation ocean model. Two narrow continents, running along meridians, divide ...

Abstract: Perturbations to the carbon cycle could constitute large feedbacks on future changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration and climate. This paper demonstrates how carbon cycle feedback can be expressed in formally similar ways ...

Abstract: Difficulties in the assimilation of Lagrangian data arise because the state of the prognostic model is generally described in terms of Eulerian variables computed on a fixed grid in space, as a result there is no direct ...

Abstract: This study compares the tropical intraseasonal oscillation (TISO) variability in the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) coupled general circulation model (CGCM) and the stand-alone atmospheric general circulation ...

Abstract: The objective of this study is to estimate the limit of dynamical predictability of the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO).Ensembles of ?twin? predictability experiments were carried out with the NASA Goddard Laboratory for ...

Abstract: Lagrangian measurements provide a significant portion of the data collected in the ocean. Difficulties arise in their assimilation, however, since Lagrangian data are described in a moving frame of reference that does not ...
