The dissipation of kinetic energy in the Lofoten Basin Eddy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06)Ocean microstructure, current, and hydrography observations from June 2016 are used to characterize the turbulence structure of the Lofoten Basin eddy (LBE), a long-lived anticyclone in the Norwegian Sea. The LBE had an ... -
Dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy inferred from Seagliders: an application to the eastern Nordic Seas overflows
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-12)Turbulent mixing is an important process controlling the descent rate, water mass modification, and volume transport augmentation due to entrainment in the dense overflows across the Greenland–Scotland Ridge. These overflows, ... -
A Miocene (8–12 Ma) intermediate water benthic stable isotope record from the northeastern Atlantic, ODP Site 982
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003-03-12)Oxygen and carbon isotope records are presented for the benthic foraminifer Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi from upper middle through lower upper Miocene (11.6–8.2 Ma) sediments recovered at intermediate water depth (1134 m) ... -
Uncertainty in twenty-first century projections of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in CMIP3 and CMIP5 models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-05-26)Uncertainty in the strength of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is analyzed in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 3 (CMIP3) and Phase 5 (CMIP5) projections for the twenty-first century; ... -
Water mass transformation in the Greenland Sea during the period 1986-2016
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-01)Hydrographic measurements from ships, autonomous profiling floats, and instrumented seals over the period 1986–2016 are used to examine the temporal variability in open-ocean convection in the Greenland Sea during winter. ...
