Atmospheric response to zonally averaged sea surface temperatures in the North Atlantic - a model study
(Master thesis, 2008-05-29)A less dynamically active ocean will most likely lead to a more zonal sea surface temperature (SST) distribution. In order to identify if, and how such an effect affects the atmospheric variability, idealized experiments ... -
Consistent fluctuations in intermediate water temperature off the coast of Greenland and Norway during Dansgaard-Oeschger events
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-11-01)Rapid warmings epitomize the Dansgaard-Oeschger events that are recorded in Greenland ice cores and imprinted in ocean sediment cores. While the abrupt climate changes appear connected to perturbations in sea ice and ocean ... -
Coupled atmosphere-ice-ocean dynamics in Dansgaard-Oeschger events
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-11-10)The Dansgaard-Oeschger events of the last ice age are among the best studied abrupt climate changes, yet a comprehensive explanation is still lacking. They are most pronounced in the North Atlantic, where they manifest as ... -
The North Atlantic Oscillation and greenhouse-gas forcing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-02-17)The results of 12 coupled climate models participating in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP2) are compared together with observational data in order to investigate: 1) How the current generation of climate ... -
The sensitivity of the present day Atlantic meriodinal overturning circulation to freshwater forcing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003-09-09)Mounting evidence indicates that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) was strongly reduced during cold climate episodes in the past, possible due to freshwater influx from glacial melting. It is also ...
