Extreme High Greenland Blocking Index Leads to the Reversal of Davis and Nares Strait Net Transport Toward the Arctic Ocean

Myers, Paul G., de al Guardia, Laura Castro, Fu, Chuanshuai, Gillard, Laura C., Grivault, Nathan, Hu, Xianmin, Lee, Craig M., Moore, G. W. K., Pennelly, Clark, Ribergaard, Mads Hvid, Romanski, Joy
Baffin Bay exports Arctic Water to the North Atlantic while receiving northward flowing Atlantic Water. Warm Atlantic Water has impacted the retreat of tidewater glaciers draining the Greenland Ice Sheet. Periods of enhanced Atlantic Water transport into Baffin Bay have been observed, but the...

A series of experiments with an ocean general circulation model of the Mediterranean forced by artificial (but realistic) surface fluxes of heat and freshwater are performed. The model has a stable thermohaline circulation under the baseline fluxes. Small decreases in excess evaporation (8%)...

Greenland freshwater pathways in the sub-Arctic seas from model experiments with passive tracers

Chassignet, Eric, Lee, Craig M., Bamber, Jonathan L., Curry, Beth, Dukhovskoy, Dmitry S., Timmermans, Mary-Louise, Platov, Gennady, Myers, Paul G., Proshutinsky, Andrey, Hu, Xianmin, Somavilla, Raquel
Accelerating since the early 1990s, the Greenland Ice Sheet mass loss exerts a significant impact on thermohaline processes in the sub-Arctic seas. Surplus freshwater discharge from Greenland since the 1990s, comparable in volume to the amount of freshwater present during the Great Salinity...

A new data set of temperature and salinity fields reconstructed from satellite altimetry data between January 1993 and April 2014 is combined with satellite observations of mesoscale eddies in the subpolar North Atlantic between 40°N–55°N and 43°W–20.5°W. The data set is used to calculate the...

Hudson Strait is the main pathway of heat, mass, and freshwater exchange between Hudson Bay and the Arctic and North Atlantic oceans. The outflow along the southern coast of the strait, a fresh, baroclinic jet directed toward the North Atlantic, has received more attention due to its potential...

A numerical modeling sensitivity study is carried out within the Labrador Sea by varying the atmospheric conditions. From forcing NEMO simulations with five atmospheric products commonly used in ocean modeling (DFS5.2, ERA-Interim, CGRF, ERA5, and JRA55-do), we calculate the air–sea heat fluxes...

Impact of extended NAO buoyancy forcing on the subpolar North Atlantic and climate variability over the last millenium
Download2007
We examine the impact of forcing a regional eddy-permitting ocean model of the subpolar North Atlantic with anomalous buoyancy fluxes corresponding to extended extreme states of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). We find a weakened (enhanced) Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) in our low...

The transport of freshwater is analyzed in an eddy-permitting regional model of the sub-polar North Atlantic, focusing on the export of freshwater (in liquid form) through Davis Strait. The results show that in the model simulations there is a limited exchange of freshwater between the Labrador...

The role of the thermohaline circulation in controlling export production, oxygenation of deep waters, and hence possible sapropel formation in the eastern Mediterranean is examined using a simple nutrient-cycling model. The model is driven by velocity fields from a general circulation model and...
