Contrasting Indian Ocean SST variability with and without ENSO influence: A coupled atmosphere-ocean GCM study
In this study, we perform experiments with a coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model (CGCM) to examine ENSO’s influence on the interannual sea-surface temperature (SST) variability of the tropical Indian Ocean. The control experiment includes both the Indian and Pacific Oceans in the ocean model component of the CGCM (the Indo-Pacific Run). The anomaly experiment excludes ENSO’s infl...
متن کاملA Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere System of SST Modulation for the Indian Ocean*
The net heat flux into the northern Indian Ocean is between 75 and 100 W m22 during the boreal spring and early summer but only 10–20 W m22 in the western Pacific during the entire year. The differences in the net surface heat fluxes arise from the radiation shielding by deep convective clouds over the western Pacific and the near absence of clouds over the northern Indian Ocean during spring. ...
متن کاملCoupled atmosphere–mixed layer ocean response to ocean heat flux convergence along the Kuroshio Current Extension
The winter response of the coupled atmosphere–ocean mixed layer system to anomalous geostrophic ocean heat flux convergence in the Kuroshio Extension is investigated by means of experiments with an atmospheric general circulation model coupled to an entraining ocean mixed layer model in the extra-tropics. The direct response consists of positive SST anomalies along the Kuroshio Extension and a ...
متن کاملIndian Ocean dipole response to global warming: Analysis of ocean-atmospheric feedbacks in a coupled model
Low-frequency modulation and change under global warming of the Indian Ocean dipole (IOD) mode are investigated with a pair of multicentury integrations of a coupled ocean–atmosphere general circulation model: one under constant climate forcing and one forced by increasing greenhouse gas concentrations. In the unforced simulation, there is significant decadal and multidecadal modulation of the ...
متن کاملCoupled Ocean-atmosphere Interaction at Oceanic Mesoscales
52 abSTr acT. Satellite observations have revealed a remarkably strong positive correlation between sea surface temperature (SST) and surface winds on oceanic mesoscales of 10–1000 km. Although SST influence on the atmosphere had previously been identified from several in situ observational studies, its widespread existence in regions of strong SST gradients throughout the world's ocean and the...
