Abstract: The role of sidewalls in determining the interior distribution of potential vorticity (PV) is investigated using eddy-resolving isopycnic experiments. The layer model is integrated at 116° resolution for a wind-driven ...

Abstract: asin-scale thermal anomalies in the North Atlantic, extending to depths of 1?2 km, are more pronounced than the background warming over the last 60 years. A dynamical analysis based on reanalyses of historical data from ...

Abstract: Low potential vorticity extends over the deep waters of the North Pacific and, possibly, the bottom waters of the North Atlantic. Isopycnic model integrations are conducted to investigate how these potential vorticity ...

Abstract: n the North Atlantic, there are pronounced gyre-scale changes in ocean heat content on interannual-to-decadal time scales, which are associated with changes in both sea surface temperature and thermocline thickness; the ...

Abstract: AbstractClimate projections reveal global-mean surface warming increasing nearly linearly with cumulative carbon emissions. The sensitivity of surface warming to carbon emissions is interpreted in terms of a product of ...
