Mechanisms of ocean heat uptake in a coupled climate model and the implications for tracer based predictions of ocean heat uptake [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2006
The distribution of tracers in the ocean is often taken as an indication of the ventilation pathways for oceanic water masses. It has been suggested that under anthropogenic forcing heat will be taken up into the interior of the ocean along isopycnal ventilation pathways.

Decreasing trend of tropical cyclone-induced ocean warming in recent decades

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
Tropical cyclones (TCs) can influence climate by pumping heat into the ocean, yet little is known about how the TC-induced ocean heat uptake (OHU) has changed in recent decades. Based on ocean reanalysis, we calculated OHU and found a significant decline

Ocean Surface Flux Algorithm Effects on Earth System Model Energy and Water Cycles

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Earth system models parameterize ocean surface fluxes of heat, moisture, and momentum with empirical bulk flux algorithms, which introduce biases and uncertainties into simulations.

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

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
AbstractThe 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. Here, we introduce a framework relating meridional heat transport to the diabatic processes

Impact of geothermal heating on the global ocean circulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The response of a global circulation model to a uniform geothermal heat flux of 50 mW m-2 through the sea floor is examined. If the geothermal heat input were transported upward purely by diffusion, the deep ocean would warm by 1.2°C. However, geothermal

Earth's Energy Imbalance From the Ocean Perspective (2005–2019)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Earth's energy imbalance (EEI) represents the rate of global energy accumulation in response to radiative forcings and feedbacks. Ocean heat uptake (OHU) poses a vital constraint on EEI and its uncertainty.

Local Drivers of Marine Heatwaves: A Global Analysis With an Earth System Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2022
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are periods of extreme warm ocean temperatures that can have devastating impacts on marine organisms and socio-economic systems. Despite recent advances in understanding the underlying processes of individual events, a global view

Vertical‐Slice Ocean Tomography With Seismic Waves

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Seismically generated sound waves that propagate through the ocean are used to infer temperature anomalies and their vertical structure in the deep East Indian Ocean.

Isolating the signal of ocean global warming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Identifying the signature of global warming in the world's oceans is challenging because low frequency circulation changes can dominate local temperature changes.

Future dynamic sea level change in the western subtropical North Pacific associated with ocean heat uptake and heat redistribution by ocean circulation under global warming

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2020
In the present study, the relative importance of ocean heat uptake and heat redistribution on future sea level changes in the western North Pacific has been reconciled based on a set of climate model experiments in which anomalous surface fluxes of wind ...
