Ocean circulation causes the largest freshening event for 120 years in eastern subpolar North Atlantic. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2020
The Atlantic Ocean overturning circulation is important to the climate system because it carries heat and carbon northward, and from the surface to the deep ocean.

Deep-reaching acceleration of global mean ocean circulation over the past two decades. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv, 2020
The global mean ocean circulation from surface to deep oceans has accelerated over the past two decades. Ocean circulation redistributes Earth’s energy and water masses and influences global climate.

Coherent deglacial changes in western Atlantic Ocean circulation. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2018
Abrupt climate changes in the past have been attributed to variations in Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) strength. However, the exact timing and magnitude of past AMOC shifts remain elusive, which continues to limit our understanding ...

Ocean Circulation from Space

open access: yesSurveys in geophysics, 2023
This paper reviews the recent progress in our estimation of ocean dynamic topography and the derived surface geostrophic currents, mainly based on multiple nadir radar altimeter missions. These altimetric observations provide the cornerstone of our ocean

Progress in understanding of Indian Ocean circulation, variability, air–sea exchange, and impacts on biogeochemistry

open access: yesOcean Science (OS), 2021
. Over the past decade, our understanding of the Indian Ocean has advanced through concerted efforts toward measuring the ocean circulation and air–sea exchanges, detecting changes in water masses, and linking physical processes to ecologically important

Radiocarbon constraints on the glacial ocean circulation and its impact on atmospheric CO2. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2017
While the ocean’s large-scale overturning circulation is thought to have been significantly different under the climatic conditions of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), the exact nature of the glacial circulation and its implications for global carbon ...

Destination of New Guinea Coastal Undercurrent in the western tropical Pacific: Variability and linkages

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The New Guinea Coastal Undercurrent (NGCUC) is considered a bottleneck in the western tropical Pacific (WTP), carrying upper-to-intermediate waters from the south to the northwestern Pacific, thereby playing a fundamen tal role in the interhemispheric ...

Southern Ocean circulation [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Natural History, 2005
The Discovery Investigations of the 1930s provided a compelling description of the main elements of the Southern Ocean circulation. Over the intervening years, this has been extended to include ideas on ocean dynamics based on physical principles. In the modern description, the Southern Ocean has two main circulations that are intimately linked: a ...

Understanding Arctic Ocean Circulation: A Review of Ocean Dynamics in a Changing Climate

open access: yes, 2020
12 The Arctic Ocean is a focal point of climate change, with ocean warming, freshening, 13 sea-ice decline and circulation that link to the changing atmospheric and terrestrial en14 vironment. Major features of the Arctic and the interconnected nature of

Characteristics and Mechanisms of Marine Heatwaves in the East Asian Marginal Seas: Regional and Seasonal Differences

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Characteristics of marine heatwaves (MHWs) in the East Asian Marginal Seas (EAMS) were investigated using the daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature for 37 years (1982–2018), focusing on seasonal changes and regional differences.
