Resonant drift echoes in electron phase space density produced by dayside Pc5 waves following a geomagnetic storm
Download2008
Rankin, Robert, Degeling, Alex W.
The interaction between relativistic, equatorially mirroring electrons and Pc5 Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) waves in the magnetosphere is investigated using a numerical MagnetoHydroDynamic (MHD) model for waves and a test-kinetic model for electron phase space density (PSD). The temporal and spatial...

A two-dimensional nonlinear multi-fluid MHD model of the ionosperic Alfven resonator is presented. The resonator is excited by a packet of shear Alfven waves propagating downward toward the ionosphere from high altitudes. It is shown that the nonlinear (ponderomotive) force of standing...

Recent increases in Arctic freshwater flux affects Labrador Sea convection and Atlantic overturning circulation

Chambers, Don, Dixon, Timothy H., Bonin, Jennifer, van den Broeke, M. R., Yang, Qian, Ribergaard, Mads H., Mortensen, John, Myers, Paul G.
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is an important component of ocean thermohaline circulation. Melting of Greenland’s ice sheet is freshening the North Atlantic; however, whether the augmented freshwater flux is disrupting the AMOC is unclear. Dense Labrador Sea Water (LSW),...

Mann, I. R., Kabin, Konstantin, Donovan, E. F., Lu, J. Y., Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Jonathan, Marchand, Richard
We present theory and ground-based observations of field-line resonances (FLRs) excited in Earth's magnetosphere. Three FLR observations are reported, which correspond to large-scale standing shear Alfven wave (SAW) oscillations on nightside field lines extending from premidnight to close to...

Tikhonchuk, V. T., Prakash, M., Rankin, Robert
The structure of auroral arcs sustained by field line resonances (FLRs) is determined using a model that describes the interplay between ionospheric feedback, nonlinear, and dispersive effects in a curvilinear geomagnetic topology. The model includes modulation of Pedersen conductance by hundreds...

The influence of high-frequency atmospheric forcing on the circulation and deep convection of the Labrador Sea
Download2015
Holdsworth, Amber M., Myers, Paul G.
The influence of high-frequency atmospheric forcing on the circulation of the North Atlantic Ocean with emphasis on the deep convection of the Labrador Sea was investigated by comparing simulations of a coupled ocean–ice model with hourly atmospheric data to simulations in which 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%)...

Kabin, Konstantin, Rankin, Robert, Ozeke, Louis G., Degeling, Alex W., Mann, Ian R.
The adiabatic drift-resonant interaction between relativistic, equatorially mirroring electrons and narrowband, Pc 5 ultra low frequency (ULF) waves in the magnetosphere is investigated using a time-dependent magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) wave model. Attention is focused on the effect of a ULF wave...

Aura, Stella M., Myers, Paul G., Weaver, Andrew J.
A coarse resolution model is developed to study the thermohaline circulation of the North Atlantic. This model is driven by the annual mean Hellerman and Rosenstein wind stress field, Levitus sea surface restoring temperatures, and Schmitt, Bogden, and Dorman freshwater flux fields (mixed...
