Interannual Variability of the Altimetry-Derived Eddy Field and Surface Circulation in the Extratropical North Atlantic Ocean in 1993–2001
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The distribution of surface eddy kinetic energy (EKE) depicts main oceanic surface circulation features. The interannual variability of EKE and associated geostrophic velocity anomalies in the North Atlantic Ocean were ...
On the Reasons for the Formation and Variability of the Azores Current
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent studies have shown that the formation of the well-defined, zonally oriented Azores Current may be the result of water mass transformation associated with the Mediterranean outflow in the Gulf of Cadiz. As the denser ...
Teleconnection between the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and Sea Level in the Mediterranean Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Mediterranean Sea can be viewed as a ?barometer? of the North Atlantic Ocean, because its sea level responds to oceanic-gyre-scale changes in atmospheric pressure and wind forcing, related to the North Atlantic Oscillation ...
