The LAB60 simulation is a coupled ocean sea-ice model (NEMO) that uses grid refinement to achieve high resolution (1/60 of a degree) within the Labrador Sea. This simulation starts in 2002 and will cover a period of over 10 years. This video shows our Greenland runoff passive tracer depth...

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...

A high-resolution coupled ocean–sea ice model is set up within the Labrador Sea. With a horizontal resolution of 1/60◦ , this simulation is capable of resolving the multitude of eddies that transport heat and freshwater into the interior of the Labrador Sea. These fluxes strongly govern the...

A 90 mm diameter methanol pool fire was investigated experimentally and analytically. Aiming for well-defined experiments and understanding the physics of the involved transport processes, the liquid-side boundary conditions including the pool’s bottom temperature the wall thermal conductivity...

We examine the historical variability of Irminger Water (IW) along 3 sections across the West Greenland Current over 1950–2005. Significant variability in the salinity, size and position of the IW core are seen over time. Some of the saltiest and warmest IW ever recorded have been seen since 1995...

Labrador Sea Water formation rate and its impact on the local Meridional Overturning Circulation

Feucher, Charlene, Garcia-Quintana, Yarisbel, Yashayev, Igor, Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G.
This paper investigates the link between the Labrador Sea Water (LSW) formation rate and the strength of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation within the Labrador Sea. LSW is formed in the Labrador Sea through deep wintertime ocean convection and is then carried out of the basin by,...
