      Infrared (IR) and passive microwave (PMW) satellite sea surface temperature (SST) retrievals are valuable to assimilate into high-resolution regional ocean forecast models. Still, there are issues related to these SSTs that need to be addressed to achieve improved ocean forecasts. Firstly, satellite SST products tend to be biased. Assimilating SSTs from different providers can thus cause the ocean ...
    • The weakening AMOC under extreme climate change 

      Madan, Gaurav; Gjermundsen, Ada; Iversen, Silje Christine; Lacasce, Joseph Henry (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-06)
      Changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in the quadrupled CO<sub>2</sub> experiments conducted under the sixth Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) are examined. Increased CO<sub>2</sub> triggers extensive Arctic warming, causing widespread melting of sea ice. The resulting freshwater spreads southward, frst from the Labrador Sea and then the Nordic Seas, and ...
