Ocean Heat Content Reveals Secrets of Fish Migrations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
For centuries, the mechanisms surrounding spatially complex animal migrations have intrigued scientists and the public. We present a new methodology using ocean heat content (OHC), a habitat metric that is normally a fundamental part of hurricane ...

The Nonlinear and Distinct Responses of Ocean Heat Content and Anthropogenic Carbon to Ice Sheet Freshwater Discharge in a Warming Climate [PDF]

open access: yesEarth's Future
Anthropogenic climate change will drive extensive mass loss across both the Antarctic (AIS) and Greenland Ice Sheets (GrIS), with the potential for global climate system feedbacks, especially in polar regions.

Atlantic meridional ocean heat transport at 26° N: impact on subtropical ocean heat content variability [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2013
Local climate is significantly affected by changes in the oceanic heat content on a range of timescales. This variability is driven by heat fluxes from both the atmosphere and the ocean.

Impacts of Stratospheric Ozone Recovery on Southern Ocean Temperature and Heat Budget

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The impacts of stratospheric ozone recovery on Southern Ocean surface and interior temperature, heat content, heat uptake, and heat transport are investigated by contrasting two ensemble chemistry‐climate model simulations in 2005–2099: one with fixed ...

Surface Wave Mixing Modifies Projections of 21st Century Ocean Heat Uptake

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Climate models do not explicitly account for the smaller scale processes of ocean surface waves. However, many large-scale phenomena are essentially coupled with the waves. In particular, waves enhance mixing in the upper ocean and thereby accelerate the

The redistribution of anthropogenic excess heat is a key driver of warming in the North Atlantic

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2022
The deep layers of the North Atlantic Ocean are expected to warm in the coming decades as excess heat taken up at the ocean surface is redistributed, suggests a historical reconstruction of full-depth ocean heat content.

Subpolar Atlantic Ocean mixed layer heat content variability is increasingly driven by an active ocean

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2022
Ocean heat content in the North Atlantic mixed layer has been influenced by ocean heat transport to the same degree as by heat exchange with the atmosphere, suggest analyses of observations as well as climate model simulations.

World Ocean Thermocline Weakening and Isothermal Layer Warming

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
This paper identifies world thermocline weakening and provides an improved estimate of upper ocean warming through replacement of the upper layer with the fixed depth range by the isothermal layer, because the upper ocean isothermal layer (as a whole ...

South Pacific Ocean Dynamics Redistribute Ocean Heat Content and Modulate Heat Exchange With the Atmosphere

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
The correlation of global ocean surface temperatures with ocean heat content (OHC) at interannual to decadal time scales shows wind‐driven ocean circulation plays a fundamental role in the Earth's energy balance.
