The Dynamics of the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre Introduces Predictability to the Breeding Success of Kittiwakes
Since the open-ocean subpolar Atlantic is amongst the most predictable regions in the world, our results hold promise for predicting the general production to seabird populations over a large geographical region adjacent to the northern North Atlantic and the Arctic Mediterranean. Colonies of black-legged kittiwakes Rissa tridactyla in the North Atlantic have declined markedly since the mid-199...
متن کاملForecast cooling of the Atlantic subpolar gyre and associated impacts
Decadal variability in the North Atlantic and its subpolar gyre (SPG) has been shown to be predictable in climate models initialized with the concurrent ocean state. Numerous impacts over ocean and land have also been identified. Here we use three versions of the Met Office Decadal Prediction System to provide a multimodel ensemble forecast of the SPG and related impacts. The recent cooling tre...
متن کاملThe 8.2 ka event: Abrupt transition of the subpolar gyre toward a modern North Atlantic circulation
[1] Climate model simulations of the 8.2 ka event show an abrupt strengthening of the Atlantic subpolar gyre that allows us to connect two major but apparently contradictory climate events of the early Holocene: the freshwater outburst from proglacial lakes and the onset of Labrador Sea water formation. The 8.2 ka event is the largest climatic signal of our present interglacial with a widesprea...
متن کاملThe 8.2k event: abrupt transition of the subpolar gyre towards a modern North Atlantic circulation
This Supplement is organized as follows: The climate model is described in detail in section 1. Section 2 discusses the robustness of multiple subpolar gyre (SPG) modes by presenting findings from several climate models. Section 3 continues this discussion summarizing work on the sensitivity of the SPG primarily in CLIMBER3α. This is followed by figures supporting conclusions in the main text a...
متن کاملSensitivity of North Atlantic subpolar gyre and overturning to stratification-dependent mixing: response to global warming
We use a reduced complexity climate model with a three-dimensional ocean component and realistic topography to investigate the effect of stratificationdependent mixing on the sensitivity of the North Atlantic subpolar gyre (SPG), and the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), to idealized CO2 increase and peaking scenarios. The vertical diffusivity of the ocean interior is paramete...
