Pennelly, Clark, Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G.
The amount of cross‐isobath freshwater exchange within the North Atlantic subpolar gyre is estimated from numerical modelling simulations. A regional configuration of the Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean model is used to carry out three simulations with horizontal resolutions of 1/4°,...

Garcia-Quintana, Yarisbel, Grivault, Nathan, Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G.
The North Icelandic Jet (NIJ) is the densest component of the Denmark Strait Overflow Water, feeding the abyssal limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Here, by using observational and numerical model data, we explore the formation of overflow water on the Icelandic shelf, the...

Impact of the Surface Stress on the Volume and Freshwater Transport Through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago From a High-Resolution Numerical Simulation

Grivault, Nathan, Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G.
We use a numerical model forced with high temporal and spatial resolution atmospheric forcing to evaluate the volume and freshwater transport through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA). On average, the simulated inflow through the Queen Elizabeth Islands represents 40% of the transport...

Ridenour, Natasha A., Hu, Xianmin, Sydor, Kevin, Myers, Paul G., Barber, David G.
The Hudson Bay Complex is the outlet for many Canadian rivers, receiving roughly 900 km3/year of river runoff. Historically, studies found a consistent cyclonic flow year-round in Hudson Bay, due to the geostrophic boundary current induced by river discharge and cyclonic wind forcing that was...
