Remote sensing for oceanography: Past, present, future [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Oceanic dynamics was traditionally investigated by sampling from instruments in situ, yielding quantitative measurements that are intermittent in both space and time; the ocean is undersampled.

Short-term climate response to a freshwater pulse in the Southern Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The short-term response of the climate system to a freshwater anomaly in the Southern Ocean is investigated using a coupled global climate model. As a result of the anomaly, ventilation of deep waters around Antarctica is inhibited, causing a warming of ...

The large‐scale freshwater cycle of the Arctic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper synthesizes our understanding of the Arctic\u27s large‐scale freshwater cycle. It combines terrestrial and oceanic observations with insights gained from the ERA‐40 reanalysis and land surface and ice‐ocean models. Annual mean freshwater input

Tropical Pacific influences on the North Atlantic thermohaline circulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Most global climate models simulate a weakening of the North Atlantic Thermohaline Circulation (THC) in response to enhanced greenhouse warming. Both surface warming and freshening in high latitudes, the so-called sinking region, contribute to the ...

Estimation of mean water vapour residence time during tropical cyclones using a Lagrangian approach

open access: yesTropical Cyclone Research and Review, 2022
Tropical cyclone (TC)-related rainfall mostly depends on the atmospheric moisture uptake from local and remote sources. In this study, the mean water vapour residence time (MWVRT) was computed for precipitation related to TCs in each basin and on a ...
