Abrupt changes in sea ice and dynamics of Dansgaard-Oeschger events
Jensen, Mari Fjalstad (Doctoral thesis, 2017-12-01)Changes in sea ice are proposed as an important component in Dansgaard-Oeschger events; the abrupt climate change events that occurred repeatedly during the last ice age. Paleoclimatic reconstructions suggest an expansion ... -
Buoyancy forcing: A key driver of northern North Atlantic sea surface temperature variability across multiple timescales
Risebrobakken, Bjørg; Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Langehaug, Helene R.; Eldevik, Tor; Sandø, Anne Britt; Li, Camille; Born, Andreas; McClymont, Erin Louise; Salzmann, Ulrich; De Schepper, Stijn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Analyses of observational data (from year 1870 AD) show that sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies along the pathway of Atlantic Water transport in the North Atlantic, the Norwegian Sea and the Iceland Sea are spatially ... -
Consistent fluctuations in intermediate water temperature off the coast of Greenland and Norway during Dansgaard-Oeschger events
Sessford, Evangeline; Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Tisserand, Amandine Aline; Muschitiello, Francesco; Dokken, Trond Martin; Nisancioglu, Kerim Hestnes; Jansen, Eystein (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 ... -
Dansgaard-Oeschger and Heinrich event temperature anomalies in the North Atlantic set by sea ice, frontal position and thermocline structure
Pedro, J.B.; Andersson, Carin; Vettoretti, G.; Voelker, A.H.L.; Waelbroeck, C.; Dokken, Trond Martin; Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Rasmussen, S.O.; Sessford, Evangeline; Jochum, M.; Nisancioglu, Kerim Hestnes (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We use eighteen timescale-synchronised near-surface temperature reconstructions spanning 10–50 thousand years before present to clarify the regional expression of Dansgaard-Oeschger (D-O) and Heinrich (H) events in the ... -
The interaction between sea ice and salinity-dominated ocean circulation: implications for halocline stability and rapid changes of sea ice cover
Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Nilsson, Johan; Nisancioglu, Kerim Hestnes (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-11)Changes in the sea ice cover of the Nordic Seas have been proposed to play a key role for the dramatic temperature excursions associated with the Dansgaard–Oeschger events during the last glacial. In this study, we develop ... -
Large changes in sea ice triggered by small changes in Atlantic water temperature
Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Nisancioglu, Kerim Hestnes; Spall, Michael A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06)The sensitivity of sea ice to the temperature of inflowing Atlantic water across the Greenland–Scotland Ridge is investigated using an eddy-resolving configuration of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology General ... -
A spatio-temporal reconstruction of sea-surface temperatures in the North Atlantic during Dansgaard-Oeschger events 5–8
Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Nummelin, Aleksi; Nielsen, Søren B.; Sadatzki, Henrik; Sessford, Evangeline; Risebrobakken, Bjørg; Andersson, Carin; Voelker, Antje; Roberts, William H. G.; Born, Andreas (Journal article, 2017-08-24)Here we establish a spatio-temporal evolution of the sea-surface temperatures in the North Atlantic over Dansgaard Oeschger (DO) events 5–8 (c. 30–40 ka) using the proxy surrogate reconstruction method. Proxy data suggest ... -
Transient Increase in Arctic Deep-Water Formation and Ocean Circulation under Sea Ice Retreat
Bretones, Anais Magali; Nisancioglu, Kerim Hestnes; Jensen, Mari Fjalstad; Brakstad, Ailin; Yang, Shuting (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)While a rapid sea ice retreat in the Arctic has become ubiquitous, the potential weakening of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) in response to global warming is still under debate. As deep mixing occurs ...
