Roles of the atmosphere and ocean in the projected north atlantic warming hole
There exists a warming deficit in sea surface temperatures (SST) over the subpolar North Atlantic in response to quadrupled CO2, referred to as the projected North Atlantic warming hole (WH). This study employs a...

Low-frequency variability of upper-ocean temperature in the Central Pacific Subantarctic Mode Water formation region since the 1980s
Subantarctic Mode Water is a water mass with nearly vertically homogeneous physical properties in the Southern Ocean, which exhibit variability at various time scales. This study investigates the low-frequency...

Revisiting the equatorial Pacific sea surface temperature response to global warming
The relative roles of the oceanic and atmospheric processes in the pattern formation of the equatorial Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) response to global warming is investigated using a set of climate mo...

Changes of upper-ocean temperature in the Southeast Indian Subantarctic Mode Water formation region since the 1950s
The decadal variability and long-term trend of upper-ocean temperature in the Southeast Indian Ocean since the 1950s are investigated based on an eddy-resolving ocean model and two observation-based products. ...

Water-gas flow in rough rock fractures: insights from coupled triaxial compression experiments
To investigate two-phase fluid flow processes influenced by phase interference, pressure drop, fracture roughness and environmental stress, a nitrogen-water two-phase flow experiment was carried out on highly ...

Characteristics of land-subsidence evolution and soil deformation before and after the Water Diversion Project in Bei**g, China
Bei**g is a major metropolis in China, which shows characteristics of significant land subsidence because of long-term overexploitation of groundwater. Since the South-to-North Water Diversion Project Central...

Article
Open AccessExternally forced symmetric warming in the Arctic and Antarctic during the second half of the twentieth century
In recent decades, the two polar regions have exhibited strikingly different changes, with much greater warming in the Arctic than the Antarctic. However, the warming asymmetry between the two polar regions is...

Understanding the different responses from the similarity between displacement and groundwater level time series in Bei**g, China
The quantitative relationship between the groundwater level (GWL) and land subsidence is essential to understand, prevent and control subsidence. This study compares the subsidence due to GWL variation at diff...

Asymmetric responses of the meridional ocean heat transport to climate warming and cooling in CESM
This study investigates the responses of the meridional ocean heat transport (OHT) to heat fluxes of equal amplitude but opposite sign into the global ocean surface using the Community Earth System Model (CESM...

Article
The Role of Ocean Dynamics in the Cross-equatorial Energy Transport under a Thermal Forcing in the Southern Ocean
Under external heating forcing in the Southern Ocean, climate models project anomalous northward atmosphere heat transport (AHT) across the equator, accompanied by a southward shift of the intertropical conver...

Variability of spice injection in the upper ocean of the southeastern Pacific during 1992–2016
Seasonal-to-decadal variability of spice injection in the upper ocean of the subtropical southeastern Pacific (SEP) is investigated using 3-day and 0.25° simulations spanning from 1992 to 2016 in the Consortiu...

Article
Changes in ENSO amplitude under climate warming and cooling
The response of ENSO amplitude to climate warming and cooling is investigated using the Community Earth System Model (CESM), in which the warming and cooling scenarios are designed by adding heat fluxes of equ...

Article
Response of the equatorial Pacific thermocline to climate warming
Climate models project a significant shoaling of the thermocline over the western equatorial Pacific Ocean under global warming, which has been generally regarded as a direct response to surface wind change. T...

Groundwater-pum** optimization for land-subsidence control in Bei**g plain, China
Bei**g, in the North China plain, is one of the few megacities that uses groundwater as its main source of water supply. Groundwater accounts for about two-thirds of the city’s water supply, and during the pa...
