Evaluating and improving wave and non-wave stress parametrisations for oceanic flows
Daniel R. Johnston, Callum J. Shakespeare, Navid C. Constantinou
Whenever oceanic currents flow over rough topography, there is an associated stress that acts to modify the flow. In the deep ocean, this stress is predominantly a form drag due to…
Asymmetric response of the North Atlantic gyres to the North Atlantic Oscillation
Dhruv Bhagtani, Andy McC. Hogg, Ryan M. Holmes +2
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a leading mode of atmospheric variability, affecting the North Atlantic Ocean on sub-seasonal to multi-decadal timescales. The NAO changes t…
Unravelling how winds and surface heat fluxes control the Atlantic Ocean's meridional heat transport
Dhruv Bhagtani, Andrew McC. Hogg, Ryan M. Holmes +1
The North Atlantic Ocean circulation, fuelled by winds and surface buoyancy fluxes, carries 1.25 PettaWatts of heat poleward in the subtropics, and helps in regulating global weath…
Rapid topographic scatter of near-inertial waves generated by storms
Ashley J. Barnes, Callum J. Shakespeare, Andy McC. Hogg +1
Internal waves propagate on the ocean's stratification, carrying energy and redistributing momentum through the ocean. When internal waves break, they contribute to diapycnal mixin…
