The impact of resolution on the adjustment and decadal variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in a coupled climate model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Variations in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) exert an important influence on climate, particularly on decadal time scales. Simulation of the MOC in coupled climate models is compromised, to a degree that is unknown, by their lack ...

Implications of Updated Magnetic Anomalies for the Late Cretaceous Tectonic Evolution of Walvis Ridge

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
In the South Atlantic, a reorganization of the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge began before anomaly C34n (83.6 Ma) and ended before anomaly C30n (66.4 Ma), complicating tectonics of Rio Grande Rise and older Walvis Ridge (WR), which formed together at the Mid ...

Atmospheric teleconnection mechanisms of extratropical North Atlantic SST influence on Sahel rainfall [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Extratropical North Atlantic cooling has been tied to droughts over the Sahel in both paleoclimate observations and modeling studies. This study, which uses an atmospheric general circulation model (GCM) coupled to a slab ocean model that simulates this ...

THE SOUTH ATLANTIC ANOMALY (SAA)

open access: yes, 2023
The South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) is a geophysical phenomenon characterized by the weakening of the Earth's magnetic field over the South Atlantic Ocean region. AAS has been the subject of study by many scientists around the world, due to its magnitude and potential impact on satellite-based technologies such as navigation and communications.

Heavy Rainfall Episodes in the Eastern Northeast Brazil Linked to Large-Scale Ocean-Atmosphere Conditions in the Tropical Atlantic

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2012
Relationships between simultaneous occurrences of distinctive atmospheric easterly wave (EW) signatures that cross the south-equatorial Atlantic, intense mesoscale convective systems (lifespan > 2 hour) that propagate westward over the western south ...

Interannual variability of the Tropical Atlantic independent of and associated with ENSO: Part II. The South Tropical Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Two dominant ocean-atmosphere modes of variability on interannual timescales were defined in Part I of this work, namely, the North Tropical Atlantic (NTA) and South Tropical Atlantic (STA) modes.

A harmonic spline magnetic main field model for Southern Africa combining ground and satellite data to describe the evolution of the South Atlantic Anomaly in this region between 2005 and 2010

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2018
CHAMP satellite and relatively densely spaced ground-based data measured over southern Africa between 2005 and 2010 are combined in a new regional, harmonic spline based, core field model.

Solar cycle signatures in lightning activity [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics
The cross-correlation between annual lightning frequency and solar activity and the heliospheric magnetic field (HMF) is examined on a global scale using corrected data from the World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) for the period 2009 to 2022 ...

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 ...

Combined impact of summer NAO and northern Russian shortwave cloud radiative effect on Eurasian atmospheric circulation

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
Based on ERA-Interim and CERES_SYN1deg Ed4.1 datasets, the combined influence of summer North Atlantic Oscillation (SNAO) and positive shortwave cloud radiative effect (SWCRE) events in northern Russia on Eurasian atmospheric circulation is investigated ...
