Latitudinal dependence of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) variations
[1] AMOC variations are often thought to propagate with the Kelvin wave speed, resulting in a short time lead between high and low latitudes AMOC variations. However as shown in this paper using a coupled climate model (GFDL CM2.1), with the existence of interior pathways of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) from Flemish Cap to Cape Hatteras as that observed recently, AMOCvariations estimated in...
متن کاملAtlantic Dominance of the Meridional Overturning Circulation
North Atlantic (NA) deep-water formation and the resulting Atlantic meridional overturning cell is generally regarded as the primary feature of the global overturning circulation and is believed to be a result of the geometry of the continents. Here, instead, the overturning is viewed as a global energy–driven system and the robustness of NA dominance is investigated within this framework. Usin...
متن کاملOn the Driving Processes of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation
[1] Because of its relevance for the global climate the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) has been a major research focus for many years. Yet the question of which physical mechanisms ultimately drive the AMOC, in the sense of providing its energy supply, remains a matter of controversy. Here we review both observational data and model results concerning the two main candidates...
متن کاملthe effect of the utilization of electronic dictionaries on depth and breadth of vocabulary knowledge: a case of iranian efl learners
مطالعه حاضر تلاشی است برای بررسی تأثیرات به کارگیری فرهنگ لغات ، یکی از مهمترین ابزارهای یادگیری واژگان درفراگیری زبان خارجی، بر روی دانش لغوی. دراین تحقیق فرهنگ های الکترونیکی در قیاس با فرهنگ های چاپی مورد بررسی قرارگرفته اند که آیا این فرهنگ ها تاثیرقابل توجهی بر روی دوبعد کمی و کیفی دانش لغوی یعنی عمق و گستره لغات می گذارند. همچنین مشخص گردیده است که آیا تفاوت قابل ملاحظه ای میان عمق و گستر...
15 صفحه اولOn the stability of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation.
One of the most important large-scale ocean current systems for Earth's climate is the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). Here we review its stability properties and present new model simulations to study the AMOC's hysteresis response to freshwater perturbations. We employ seven different versions of an Ocean General Circulation Model by using a highly accurate tracer advectio...
