Geothermal Heating and its Influence on the Meridional Overturning Circulation [PDF]

, 2001
The effect of geothermal heating on the meridional overturning circulation is examined using an idealized, coarse-resolution ocean general circulation model.

Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Observed Inhibited Downward Penetration of Wind‐Generated Near‐Inertial Energy in the Bering Sea

Geophysical Research Letters
Near‐inertial waves (NIWs) are energetic in the Bering Sea, but their downward propagation characteristics remain unknown. Here, we first report the penetration of near‐inertial energy generated by distinct synoptic wind forcing events using yearlong ...

Tropical Ocean Circulation Experiments [PDF]

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1987
Abstract A primitive equation model of the equatorial Pacific Ocean was forced by realistic wind stress distributions over decades. Results were presented for a set of two experiments. In the first experiment the model was forced by an objectively analyzed wind field, while for the second experiment a subjectively analyzed wind field was used.

Sensitivity of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation to South Atlantic freshwater anomalies

, 2012
The sensitivity of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) to changes in basin integrated net evaporation is highly dependent on the zonal salinity contrast at the southern border of the Atlantic.

Variability in the Indian Ocean circulation and salinity and its impact on SST anomalies during dipole events [PDF]

, 2006
The GFDL Modular Ocean Model (MOM4) has been used to understand the variability of the Indian Ocean circulation and salinity during Indian Ocean Dipole events. The model simulations are compared with HadISST, SODA and ECCO data sets.

Electrode structures of solid–liquid interface‐based triboelectric nanogenerators and their applications

Droplet, EarlyView.
In this review, we have summarized the working principles and equivalent circuit diagrams of solid‐liquid interface triboelectric nanogenerators with different electrode structures, as well as the applications of devices with such structures in droplet mechanical energy harvesting and self‐powered sensing of liquid samples, along with their respective ...

Intensification of Decadal Variability in Sea Surface Salinity in the Western Tropical Pacific

Geophysical Research Letters
The decadal variability of sea surface salinity (SSS) is crucial for the global water cycle and the climate system. Previous studies have indicated that the SSS in the western tropical Pacific (WTP) Ocean exhibits significant decadal variability, which ...

Influence of the Multidecadal Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation Variability on European Climate [PDF]

, 2006
The influence of the natural multidecadal variability of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC) on European climate is investigated using a simulation with the coupled atmosphere–ocean general circulation model ECHAM5/Max Planck Institute ...
