Surface geostrophic velocity fields derived from satellite altimetry between January 1993 and April 2014 are used to detect and investigate eddies in the North Atlantic between 40°N–55°N and 60°W–10°W. Focus is on a zonal section along 47°N, roughly at the boundary between the subpolar and the...

Stability of the Mediterranean's thermohaline circulation under modified surface evaporative fluxes
Download2002
A series of experiments with an ocean general circulation model of the Mediterranean forced by artificial (but realistic) surface fluxes of heat and fresh water is performed over 100 year periods. The model has a stable thermohaline circulation under the baseline fluxes. Small increases/decreases...

Simulated impacts of relative climate change and river discharge regulation on sea ice and oceanographic conditions in the Hudson Bay Complex

Lukovich, Jennifer V., Jafarikhasragh, Shabnam, Myers, Paul G., Ridenour, Natasha A., de la Guardia, Laura Castro, Hu, Xianmin, Grivault, Nathan, Marson, Juliana, Pennelly, Clark, Stroeve, Julienne C., Sydor, Kevin, Wong, Karen, Stadnyk, T. A., Barber, D. G.
In this analysis, we examine relative contributions from climate change and river discharge regulation to changes in marine conditions in the Hudson Bay Complex using a subset of five atmospheric forcing scenarios from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), river discharge...

Separating the influence of projected changes in air temperature and wind on patterns of sea level change and ocean heat content
Download2015
Saenko, Oleg A., Myers, Paul G., Gregory, Jonathan M., Yang, Duo, Spence, Paul
We present ocean model sensitivity experiments aimed at separating the influence of the projected changes in the “thermal” (near-surface air temperature) and “wind” (near-surface winds) forcing on the patterns of sea level and ocean heat content. In the North Atlantic, the distribution of sea...

Sensitivity of the subpolar North Atlantic to Last Glacial Maximum surface forcing and sea ice distribution in an eddy-permitting regional ocean model
Download2006
Myers, Paul G., Bush, Andrew B. G., Yang, Duo
The impact of paleoatmospheric forcing and sea ice distribution on the circulation of the subpolar North Atlantic is examined in a regional eddy-permitting ocean model. We focus on water mass formation and the pathway of the North Atlantic Current. Paleofluxes are obtained from a coupled...

Sensitivity of Labrador Sea Water Formation to Changes in Model Resolution, Atmospheric Forcing, and Freshwater Input.

Garcia-Quintana, Yarisbel, Courtois, Peggy, Hu, Xianmin, Pennelly, Clark, Kieke, Dagmar, Myers, Paul G.
Labrador Sea Water (LSW) is one of the main contributors to the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. In this study, we explore the sensitivity of LSW formation to model resolution, Greenland melt, absence of high-frequency atmospheric phenomena, and changes in...

Seasonal Cycle of the Coastal West Greenland Current System between Cape Farewell and Cape Desolation from a very high-resolution numerical model.
Download2021-01-01
Gou, Ruijian, Feucher, CHarlene, Pennelly, Clark, Myers, Paul G.
The shelf based West Greenland Current System carries both Arctic Water and Greenland meltwater around Cape Farewell, the southern tip of Greenland, where it may impact the deep water formation in the Labrador Sea. Nevertheless, this current system remains largely unknown due to limited...

Sea Ice Rheology Experiment (SIREx): 2. Evaluating Linear Kinematic Features in High-Resolution Sea Ice Simulations
Download2022-01-01
Hutter, Nils, Bouchat, Amelie, Dupont, Frederic, Dukhovskoy, Koldunov, Nikolay, Lee, Younjoo J., Lemieux, Jean-Francois, Lique, Camille, Losch, Martin, Maslowski, Wieslaw, Myers, Paul G., Olason, Einar, Rampal, Pierre, Ramussen, Till, Talandier, Claude, Tremblay, Bruno, Wang, Qiang
Simulating sea ice drift and deformation in the Arctic Ocean is still a challenge because of the multiscale interaction of sea ice floes that compose the Arctic Sea ice cover. The Sea Ice Rheology Experiment (SIREx) is a model intercomparison project of the Forum of Arctic Modeling and...

Sea Ice Rheology Experiment (SIREx): 1. Scaling and Statistical Properties of Sea-Ice Deformation Fields
Download2022-01-01
Bouchat, Amelie, Hutter, Nils, Chanut, Jerome, DUpont, Frederic, Dukhovsoy, Dmitry, Garric, Gilles, Lee, Younjoo J., Lemieux, JEan-Francois, Lique, Camille, Losch, Martin, Maslowski, Wieslaw, Myers, Paul G., Olason, Einar, Rampal, Pierre, Ramussen, Till, Talandier, Claude, Tremblay, Bruno, Wang, Qiang
As the sea‐ice modeling community is shifting to advanced numerical frameworks, developing new sea‐ice rheologies, and increasing model spatial resolution, ubiquitous deformation features in the Arctic sea ice are now being resolved by sea‐ice models. Initiated at the Forum for Arctic Modeling...

Smith, Gregory C., Yashayaev, Igor, Saenko, Oleg A., Dupont, Frédéric, Myers, Paul G., Yang, Duo
Deep convection in the Labrador Sea is an important component of the global ocean ventilation. The associated loss of heat to the atmosphere from the interior of the sea is thought to be mostly supplied by mesoscale eddies, generated either remotely or as a result of convection itself—processes...
