Quantification of the Feedback between Phytoplankton and ENSO in the Community Climate System Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The current coarse-resolution version of the Community Climate System Model is used to assess the impact of phytoplankton on El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO). The experimental setup allows for the separation of the ...
Mechanisms Governing Interannual Variability of Upper-Ocean Temperature in a Global Ocean Hindcast Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The interannual variability in upper-ocean (0?400 m) temperature and governing mechanisms for the period 1968?97 are quantified from a global ocean hindcast simulation driven by atmospheric reanalysis and satellite data ...
Local and Downstream Relationships between Labrador Sea Water Volume and North Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWhile it has generally been understood that the production of Labrador Sea Water (LSW) impacts the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC), this relationship has not been explored extensively or validated ...
An Ensemble Adjustment Kalman Filter for the CCSM4 Ocean Component
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors report on the implementation and evaluation of a 48-member ensemble adjustment Kalman filter (EAKF) for the ocean component of the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4). The ocean assimilation system ...
Variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in CCSM4
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: tlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) variability is documented in the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4) preindustrial control simulation that uses nominal 1° horizontal resolution in all its ...
The CCSM4 Ocean Component
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he ocean component of the Community Climate System Model version 4 (CCSM4) is described, and its solutions from the twentieth-century (20C) simulations are documented in comparison with observations and those of CCSM3. The ...
Can the Salt-Advection Feedback Be Detected in Internal Variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractEvidence for the assumptions of the salt-advection feedback in box models is sought by studying the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) internal variability in the long preindustrial control runs of ...
