Effect of Vegetation on the Late Miocene Ocean Circulation
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2015 We examine the role of the vegetation cover and the associated hydrological cycle on the deep ocean circulation during the Late Miocene (~10 million years ago).

Impact of a 30% reduction in Atlantic meridional overturning during 2009–2010 [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2014 The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation comprises warm upper waters flowing northward, becoming colder and denser until they form deep water in the Labrador and Nordic Seas that then returns southward through the North and South Atlantic.

Indian Ocean warming as a driver of the North Atlantic warming hole
Nature Communications, 2020 A significant part of the subpolar North Atlantic has warmed less over the past century than the rest of the global ocean, a feature called the North Atlantic warming hole.

North Atlantic ventilation using chlorofluorocarbons and idealised-tracer simulations [PDF]
Tellus: Series B, Chemical and Physical Meteorology, 2012 The simulated chlorofluorocarbon CFC-11 and 29 geographically defined CFC-11 tracers, as well as 29 geographically defined idealised tracers, are used to quantify the regional contribution to the ventilation of the North Atlantic Ocean in a global ...

Atmospheric teleconnection mechanisms of extratropical North Atlantic SST influence on Sahel rainfall [PDF]
, 2014 Extratropical North Atlantic cooling has been tied to droughts over the Sahel in both paleoclimate observations and modeling studies. This study, which uses an atmospheric general circulation model (GCM) coupled to a slab ocean model that simulates this ...

The Arctic Ocean is a net sink for anthropogenic lead deposited into the Atlantic Ocean
Nature CommunicationsHumans emitted millions of tons of the toxic element lead (Pb) into the atmosphere. The North Atlantic Ocean has been strongly affected by atmospheric Pb deposition, however the role of ocean currents in dispersing the Atlantic dissolved Pb (dPb) burden ...

Atlantic Ocean influence on a shift in European climate in the 1990s [PDF]
, 2012 European climate exhibits variability on a wide range of timescales. Understanding the nature and drivers of this variability is an essential step in developing robust climate predictions and risk assessments.
