Diagnosing and Understanding the AMOC Biases in NorESM [PDF]

, 2014
We investigate the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in the Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM) featuring isopycnal ocean component (MICOM).

Impact of industrial versus biomass burning aerosols on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
The ocean’s major circulation system, the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), is slowing down. Such weakening is consistent with warming associated with increasing greenhouse gases, as well as with recent decreases in industrial aerosol ...

How Robust Are the Surface Temperature Fingerprints of the Atlantic Overturning Meridional Circulation on Monthly Time Scales?

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
It has been suggested that changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) can drive sea surface temperature (SST) on monthly time scales (Duchez et al., 2016, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00382‐015‐2918‐1).

Different ice sheets - different AMOC? Revisiting the ice-sheet effect on the LGM AMOC

, 2021
Coupled climate models have produced very different states of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in simulations of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). In particular, many of them failed to capture the shoaling of the upper AMOC cell, which was indicated by reconstructions.

The Stability of the AMOC During Heinrich Events Is Not Dependent on the AMOC Strength in an Intermediate Complexity Earth System Model Ensemble

, 2019
Previous studies that used Earth system models of intermediate complexity showed that stronger background winds drove a more vigorous and stable Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), while those with weaker winds had a more sluggish and ...

The alexandria mineral oils company (AMOC): A strategic assessment of AMOC\u27s IPO

, 2011
This case deals with a critical question about the underlying motives for Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), using the events surrounding the IPO of the Alexandria Mineral and Oils Company (AMOC) in Egypt.

Coherence of the AMOC Over the Subpolar North Atlantic on Interannual to Multiannual Time Scales

Geophysical Research Letters
Direct measurements of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) are necessary to understand its evolution in a context of climate change. International programs monitored its recent evolution at different latitudes.

Meltwater from West Antarctic ice sheet tipping affects AMOC resilience. [PDF]

Sci Adv
The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) and polar ice sheets are coupled tipping elements, allowing for potential cascading tipping events in which tipping is facilitated by their mutual interactions. However, while an AMOC destabilization

Stochastic data adapted AMOC box models [PDF]

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) forms an important part of the global ocean circulation which transports heat and salt around the globe (thermohaline circulation).

How Does a Stable AMOC Influence the Regional Climate of the North Atlantic?

Geophysical Research Letters
Despite the recently recomputed time series of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) suggesting greater stability than previously recognized, AMOC retains the potential to influence regional climate fluctuations across multiple ...
