Atlantic Subsurface Temperatures: Response to a Shutdown of the Overturning Circulation and Consequences for Its Recovery
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using the coupled climate model of intermediate complexity, CLIMBER-3α, changes in the vertical thermal structure associated with a shutdown of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) are investigated. When ...
The Role of Northern Sea Ice Cover for the Weakening of the Thermohaline Circulation under Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration and the resulting global warming are typically associated with a weakening of the thermohaline circulation (THC) in model scenarios. For the models participating in the Coupled ...
