Abstract: eridional heat transport (MHT) in the Southern Ocean (SO) and its components are analyzed with two eddy-permitting climate models. The two models present a consistent picture of the MHT response to projected twenty-first-century ...

Abstract: he abyssal ocean is primarily filled by cold, dense waters formed around Antarctica and collectively referred to as Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW). At steady state, AABW must be consumed in the ocean interior at the same ...

Abstract: n studies of ocean mixing, it is generally assumed that small-scale turbulent overturns lose 15%?20% of their energy in eroding the background stratification. Accumulating evidence that this energy fraction, or mixing ...

Abstract: he influence of wind forcing on variability of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) is investigated using a series of eddy-permitting ocean?sea ice models. At interannual and decadal time scales the ACC transport is ...

Abstract: Because of the irregular sampling pattern of raw altimeter data, many oceanographic applications rely on information from sea surface height (SSH) products gridded on regular grids where gaps have been filled with ...

Abstract: he overturning circulation of the Southern Ocean has been investigated using eddying coupled ocean?sea ice models. The circulation is diagnosed in both density?latitude coordinates and in depth?density coordinates. ...
