North Atlantic oscillation response to anomalous Indian Ocean SST in a coupled GCM [PDF]
, 2005 The dominant pattern of atmospheric variability in the North Atlantic sector is the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). Since the 1970s the NAO has been well characterized by a trend toward its positive phase.

Pantropical Response to Global Warming and the Emergence of a La Niña‐Like Mean State Trend
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 A recent study by Zhang et al. (2019, https://doi.org/10.1029/2019GL084088) proposes “an interbasin ocean thermostat mechanism” to support the hypothesis that enhanced Indian Ocean warming during the past century has reduced the Pacific warming response ...

Recent acceleration in global ocean heat accumulation by mode and intermediate waters
Nature Communications, 2023 The ocean absorbs >90% of anthropogenic heat in the Earth system, moderating global atmospheric warming. However, it remains unclear how this heat uptake is distributed by basin and across water masses.

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

Oceanic warming of western Europe [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1979 In the northern North Atlantic off Europe, deep convection flushes buoyancy and heat out of the upper ocean each winter. It is replaced by horizontal advection during the remainder of the year. Absolute geostrophic currents can be computed from an application of the heat conservation equation.

Divergent trajectories of ocean warming and acidification
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 The ocean provides a major sink for anthropogenic heat and carbon. This sink results in ocean changes through the dual stressors of warming and acidification which can negatively impact the health of the marine ecosystem.

Changes in ocean vertical heat transport with global warming [PDF]
, 2015 Heat transport between the surface and deep ocean strongly influences transient climate change. Mechanisms setting this transport are investigated using coupled climate models and by projecting ocean circulation into the temperature-depth diagram.

Ocean circulation in a warming climate [PDF]
Nature, 2008 Climate models predict that the ocean's circulation will weaken in response to global warming, but the warming at the end of the last ice age suggests a different outcome.

PLoS ONE, 2020 Ocean warming and acidification are among the greatest threats to coral reefs. Massive coral bleaching events are becoming increasingly common and are predicted to be more severe and frequent in the near future, putting corals reefs in danger of ...
