Freshwater‐Induced Surface Cooling of the Subpolar North Atlantic in a Large‐Ensemble, High‐Resolution, Coupled Model

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract As a gateway between the Arctic and subtropics, the subpolar North Atlantic plays a key role in large‐scale climate variability. In recent decades, the region has experienced pronounced freshening. While much attention has been paid to the expected long‐term weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, the impact of freshwater

The Arctic overturning circulation: transformations, pathways and timescales [PDF]

Ocean Science
The Arctic is the northernmost terminus of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and is an important source of the densest waters feeding its lower limb.

Decadal Reversal of Eurasian Winter Temperature Trend Linked to North Atlantic Climate Variability

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract The long‐term trend of Eurasian winter surface air temperature has undergone a distinct decadal change, shifting from a pronounced cooling trend between the late 1980s and late 2000s to a subsequent warming trend. This study demonstrates that this trend reversal is partly driven by decadal changes in North Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST)

Does Polar Warming Asymmetry Exist in Bathy‐Planet Experiments?

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Ocean bathymetry and continental geometry shape ocean circulation, but whether these geographic constraints can sustain polar warming asymmetry in a fully coupled climate system remains unclear. Here we construct a fully coupled “bathy‐planet” configuration (BATHY), in which continental topography is removed and most land surfaces are replaced

Eddy Impacts on the Florida Current

, 2013
The Gulf Stream in the Atlantic carries warm water northwards and forms both the return closure of the subtropical gyre as well as the upper limb of the meridional overturning circulation.

A study of the South Atlantic Ocean: Circulation and Carbon Variability

, 2013
This analysis indicates that the Southern Ocean provides a trong sink, yet low storage, for atmospheric CO2. The South Atlantic Ocean, in particular, facilitates major interbasin exchange through the interaction of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC),

Spurious Drifts in the ITCZ Location and Associated Atmospheric Circulation in Decadal Climate Predictions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Decadal predictions are affected by initialization shocks and drift, typically diagnosed in ocean circulation or temperature. It is not known, however, to what extent the drift can affect atmospheric dynamics. Here we investigate how the drift causes spatial shifts in the location of key large‐scale atmospheric circulation features such as the

Multi‐Stability of the Present‐Day Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation

WIREs Climate Change
ABSTRACT The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) plays a key role in the climate system, especially in the global meridional heat transport. Historical reconstructions indicate that the AMOC has weakened by about 15% since the mid‐20th century. Paleoclimate records, ocean theory, as well as a hierarchy of climate models
