A coupled model study on the atlantic meridional overturning circulation under extreme atmospheric CO2 conditions
(Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, 2016)
This study investigates the climate sensitivity to a strong CO2 atmospheric forcing focusing on the North Atlantic Ocean (NA). The analysis is based on a set of 600 years long experiments performed with a state-of-the-art ...
Temporal variability of the meridional overturning circulation at 34.5°S: Results from two pilot boundary arrays in the South Atlantic
(Washington, 2013-12-03)
Data from two boundary arrays deployed along 34.5°S are combined to produce the first continuous in situ time series observations of the basin-wide meridional overturning circulation (MOC) in the South Atlantic. Daily ...
Meridional Overturning Circulation Transport Variability at 34.5°S During 2009–2017: Baroclinic and Barotropic Flows and the Dueling Influence of the Boundaries
(American Geophysical Union, 2018-05)
Six years of simultaneous moored observations near the western and eastern boundaries of the South Atlantic are combined with satellite winds to produce a daily time series of the basin-wide meridional overturning circulation ...
Influence of the meridional overturning circulation on tropical Atlantic climate and variability
(AMER METEOROLOGICAL SOC, 2008)
The influence of the meridional overturning circulation on tropical Atlantic climate and variability has been investigated using the atmosphere-ocean coupled model Speedy-MICOM (Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model). In ...
South Atlantic Circulation and Variability from a Data Assimilating Model
(CRC Press - Taylor & Francis Group, 2017)
We characterize the low frequency variability of the South Atlantic circulation using 50 years of data from the SODA model. EOF analysis show that the leading modes of sea surface height anomalies (SSH) are dominated by ...
Multi-Year Estimates of Daily Heat Transport by the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation at 34.5°S
(Blackwell Publishing, 2021-04)
Variations in the mass and heat transported by the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) have important, well-documented, influences on global and regional climate, weather, ecosystems, and coastal sea levels. However, ...
Basin-Wide Oceanographic Array Bridges the South Atlantic
(Washington, 2014)
The meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is a global system of surface, intermediate, and deep ocean currents. The MOC connects the surface layer of the ocean and the atmosphere with the huge reservoir of the deep sea ...
Strong Mixing and Recirculation in the Northwestern Argentine Basin
(American Geophysical Union, 2018-07)
The Atlantic component of the Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a key contributor to the global meridional transport of volume, salt, and heat, and thus plays a central role in global climate. As part of ongoing ...
Temporal variability of the meridional overturning circulation at 34.5°S: Results from two pilot boundary arrays in the South Atlantic
(American Geophysical Union, 2013-12)
Data from two boundary arrays deployed along 34.5°S are combined to produce the first continuous in situ time series observations of the basin-wide meridional overturning circulation (MOC) in the South Atlantic. Daily ...
Eddy Formation in the Tropical Atlantic Induced by Abrupt Changes in the Meridional Overturning Circulation
(AMER METEOROLOGICAL SOC, 2009)
The variability of the meridional overturning circulation (MOC) in the upper tropical Atlantic basin is investigated using a reduced-gravity model in a simplified domain. Four sets of idealized numerical experiments are ...
