• Internal Ocean Dynamics Control the Long-Term Evolution of Weddell Sea Polynya Activity 

      Rheinlænder, Jonathan Winfield; Smedsrud, Lars Henrik; Nisancioglu, Kerim Hestnes (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Open-ocean polynyas effectively couple the ocean and atmosphere through large ice-free areas within the sea-ice cover, release vast quantities of oceanic heat, and impact deep ocean ventilation. Changes in polynya activity, ...
    • Knowledge Gaps and Impact of Future Satellite Missions to Facilitate Monitoring of Changes in the Arctic Ocean 

      Lucas, Sylvain; Johannessen, Johnny Andre; Cancet, Mathilde; Pettersson, Lasse H; Esau, Igor; Rheinlænder, Jonathan Winfield; Ardhuin, Fabrice; Chapron, Bertrand; Korosov, Anton; Collard, Fabrice; Herlédan, Sylvain; Olason, Einar; Ferrari, Ramiro; Fouchet, Ergane; Donlon, Craig (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Polar-orbiting satellite observations are of fundamental importance to explore the main scientific challenges in the Arctic Ocean, as they provide information on bio-geo-physical variables with a denser spatial and temporal ...
    • The role of ocean circulation and sea ice in abrupt climate change 

      Rheinlænder, Jonathan Winfield (Doctoral thesis, 2020-01-17)
      Abrupt changes in Earth's climate have occurred repeatedly throughout the geological record. Evidence from paleoclimate data has revealed that climate changed most dramatically during the last glacial period, associated ...
    • Topological Constraints by the Greenland–Scotland Ridge on AMOC and Climate 

      Rheinlænder, Jonathan Winfield; Ferreira, David; Nisancioglu, Kerim Hestnes (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Changes in the geometry of ocean basins have been influential in driving climate change throughout Earth’s history. Here, we focus on the emergence of the Greenland–Scotland Ridge (GSR) and its influence on the ocean state, ...
