Contributions of Indonesian Throughflow to eastern Indian Ocean surface variability during ENSO events

open access: yesAtmospheric Science Letters, 2020
The contribution of ocean transport to the transition between the Indian Ocean Dipole mode (IOD) and the Indian Ocean Basin mode (IOB) during El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) years is investigated using reanalysis products. Composite analysis suggests

Projected Future Changes of Meridional Heat Transport and Heat Balance of the Indian Ocean

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
An ocean downscaling model product, forced under the Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 future climate change scenario, has been used to understand the ocean heat balance of the Indian Ocean in a warming climate. Toward the end of the 21th century,

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.

Impact of a 30% reduction in Atlantic meridional overturning during 2009–2010 [PDF]

open access: yesOcean 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.

Atlantic Ocean Heat Transport Enabled by Indo-Pacific Heat Uptake and Mixing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The ocean transports vast amounts of heat around the planet, helping to regulate regional climate. One important component of this heat transport is the movement of warm water from equatorial regions toward the poles, with colder water flowing in return.

Time-dependent, compositionally driven convection in the oceans of accreting neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We discuss the effect of chemical separation as matter freezes at the base of the ocean of an accreting neutron star, and the subsequent enrichment of the ocean in light elements and inward transport of heat through convective mixing.

Bjerknes compensation mechanism as a possible trigger of the low-frequency variability of Arctic amplification

open access: yesRussian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2022
The causes of Arctic amplification are widely debated, and a cohesive picture has not been obtained yet. This study has investigated the role of the Atlantic meridional oceanic and atmospheric heat transport into the Arctic in the emergence of Arctic ...

The Merits of Ocean Prediction for the Prediction of 2010, 2016, and 2021 Summer Heavy Rainfall Events in Japan

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2023
The merits of ocean prediction for heavy rainfall prediction were examined using hindcast experiments for three summer heavy rainfall events in 2010, 2016, and 2021 in Japan. In these events, the rainfall stemmed from Baiu and stationary fronts.

Tracking ocean heat uptake during the surface warming hiatus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ocean heat uptake is observed to penetrate deep into the Atlantic and Southern Oceans during the recent hiatus of global warming. Here we show that the deep heat penetration in these two basins is not unique to the hiatus but is characteristic of ...

What Caused the Significant Increase in Atlantic Ocean Heat Content Since the mid-20th Century? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
As the upper layer of the world ocean warms gradually during the 20th century, the inter-ocean heat transport from the Indian to Atlantic basin should be enhanced, and the Atlantic Ocean should therefore gain extra heat due to the increased upper ocean ...
