On the contribution of Rossby waves driven by surface buoyancy fluxes to low-frequency North Atlantic steric sea surface height variations [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Previous studies have shown that wind-forced baroclinic Rossby waves can capture a large portion of low-frequency steric SSH variations in the North Atlantic. In this paper, we extend the classical wind-driven Rossby wave model derived in a 1.5 layer ocean to include surface buoyancy forcing, and then use it to assess the contribution from buoyancy ...
