Ocean heat uptake and interbasin redistribution driven by anthropogenic aerosols and greenhouse gases
Anthropogenic aerosols and greenhouse gases have played important roles in modulating the storage and distribution of heat in oceans since the...

A new conceptual model of global ocean heat uptake
We formulate a new conceptual model, named “ MT 2”, to describe global ocean heat uptake, as simulated by atmosphere–ocean general circulation models...

Different mechanisms of Arctic and Antarctic sea ice response to ocean heat transport
Understanding drivers of Arctic and Antarctic sea ice on multidecadal timescales is key to reducing uncertainties in long-term climate projections....

The Role of Regional Atmospheric Circulation in Interannual Variability of the Ocean Heat Advection in the Nordic Seas
AbstractMore than 90% of oceanic heat enters the Arctic Ocean with the Norwegian Current. In this paper we examine the mechanisms of the variability...

Impacts of Arctic sea ice loss on global ocean circulations and interbasin ocean heat exchanges
The Arctic sea ice loss during the past several decades plays an important role in driving global climate change. Herein we explore the effects of...

Discrepancies in Simulated Ocean Net Surface Heat Fluxes over the North Atlantic
The change in ocean net surface heat flux plays an important role in the climate system. It is closely related to the ocean heat content change and...

Coupled Mode of Net Heat Flux and Wind Explain the Formation of the Indian Ocean Dipole
Net heat flux, sea surface temperature (SST), and sea surface wind in the northern Indian Ocean were investigated using the TropFlux, ERA5, and...

The role of upper-ocean variations of the Kuroshio-Oyashio Extension in seasonal-to-decadal air-sea heat flux variability
The Kuroshio-Oyashio Extension (KOE) is the North Pacific oceanic frontal zone where air-sea heat and moisture exchanges allow strong communication...

The interannual variability of shallow meridional overturning circulation and its association with the south-west Indian Ocean heat content variability
The present study examines the interannual variability of the Indian Ocean Shallow Meridional Overturning Circulation (SMOC) using century-long...

Predictability of the upper ocean heat content in a Community Earth System Model ensemble prediction system
Upper ocean heat content (OHC) has been widely recognized as a crucial precursor to high-impact climate variability, especially for that being...

Upper-Ocean Lateral Heat Transports in the Niño3.4 Region and Their Connection with ENSO
In the Niño3.4 region (tropical Pacific, 5°S–5°N, 170°–120°W), sea surface temperature (SST) changes are highly correlated with temperature...

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...

The sensitivity of climate and climate change to the efficiency of atmospheric heat transport
Atmospheric heat transport (AHT) moderates spatial gradients in surface temperature, and its efficiency (hereinafter referred to as diffusivity)...

Decadal changes in the basin-wide heat budget of the mid-latitude North Pacific Ocean
Research has indicated that the meridional heat transport (MHT) in the North Pacific Ocean (NP) across 24°N increased in the 1980s and 1990s,...
