Can Oceanic Freshwater Flux Amplify Global Warming?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he roles of freshwater flux (defined as evaporation minus precipitation) changes in global warming are studied using simulations of a climate model in which the freshwater flux changes are suppressed in the presence of a ...
Multidecadal Ocean Temperature and Salinity Variability in the Tropical North Atlantic: Linking with the AMO, AMOC, and Subtropical Cell
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Atlantic multidecadal oscillation (AMO) is characterized by the sea surface warming (cooling) of the entire North Atlantic during its warm (cold) phase. Both observations and most of the phase 5 of the Coupled Model ...
Analysis of the Characteristics and Mechanisms of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation in a Suite of Coupled Models from the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: orth Pacific decadal oceanic and atmospheric variability is examined in a suite of coupled climate models developed at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL). The models have ocean horizontal resolutions ranging ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe average predictability time (APT) method is used to identify the most predictable components of decadal sea surface temperature (SST) variations over the Southern Ocean (SO) in a 4000-yr unforced control run ...
Modes and Mechanisms of Global Water Vapor Variability over the Twentieth Century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he modes and mechanisms of the annual water vapor variations over the twentieth century are investigated based on a newly developed twentieth-century atmospheric reanalysis product. It is found that the leading modes of ...
Response of Freshwater Flux and Sea Surface Salinity to Variability of the Atlantic Warm Pool
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he response of freshwater flux and sea surface salinity (SSS) to the Atlantic warm pool (AWP) variations from seasonal to multidecadal time scales is investigated by using various reanalysis products and observations. All ...
Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Responses to Recent Freshwater Flux Changes over the Kuroshio–Oyashio Extension Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations have indicated a trend of freshwater loss in the global western boundary current extension regions over several recent decades. In this paper, the coupled ocean?atmosphere response to the observed freshwater ...
Simulated Response to Recent Freshwater Flux Change over the Gulf Stream and Its Extension: Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Adjustment and Atlantic–Pacific Teleconnection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecent observation has shown that the dominant mode of the net freshwater flux variations over the North Atlantic Ocean is the significant trend of freshwater loss over the Gulf Stream region and its extension. In this ...
Characterization Based Design Under Dual State Vectors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an automated design that is capable of generating large number of possible design concepts of hybrid combined mechanisms by given only the kinematic functions in requirement specifications. A hybrid ...
Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response to Idealized Freshwater Forcing over the Western Tropical Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The coupled ocean?atmosphere responses to idealized freshwater forcing in the western tropical Pacific are studied using a fully coupled climate model. The model explicitly demonstrates that freshwater forcing in the western ...
