Interbasin Transport of the Meridional Overturning Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
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, ...
Warm-Route versus Cold-Route Interbasin Exchange in the Meridional Overturning Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
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 ...
Components of Upper-Ocean Salt Transport by the Gyres and the Meridional Overturning Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
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 ...
