RISStability of the Thermohaline Circulation to Noisy Surface Buoyancy Forcing for the Present and a Warm Climate in an Ocean General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The stabilities of two different circulation regimes in the North Atlantic, 1) the present thermohaline circulation and 2) a weaker thermohaline circulation, are compared using the Hamburg Large Scale Geostrophic (LSG) ...
Recent Warming and Freshening of the Norwegian Sea Observed by Argo Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractClimate variability in the Norwegian Sea, comprising the Norwegian and Lofoten Basins, was investigated based upon monthly estimates of ocean heat and freshwater contents using data from Argo floats during 2002?18. ...
Wind-Driven Atlantic Water Flow as a Direct Mode for Reduced Barents Sea Ice Cover
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ariability in the Barents Sea ice cover on interannual and longer time scales has previously been shown to be governed by oceanic heat transport. Based on analysis of observations and results from an ocean circulation model ...
Structure and Forcing of Observed Exchanges across the Greenland–Scotland Ridge
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Atlantic meridional overturning circulation and associated poleward heat transport are balanced by northern heat loss to the atmosphere and corresponding water-mass transformation. The circulation of northward-flowing ...
Analysis of the Arctic System for Freshwater Cycle Intensification: Observations and Expectations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hydrologic cycle intensification is an expected manifestation of a warming climate. Although positive trends in several global average quantities have been reported, no previous studies have documented broad intensification ...
