Eastern Boundary Upwelling Systems (EBUS) are characterized by wind-triggered upwelling of deep waters along the coast. They are hotspots of biological productivity and diversity and therefore have a high economic, …

Realistically representing deep atmospheric convection is important for accurate numerical weather and climate simulations. However, parameterizing where and when deep convection occurs (“triggering”) is a well-known source of model uncertainty. …
Approximately 50 researchers from modeling centers and academia attended a workshop organized by the CLIVAR Atlantic Regional Panel AMOC Task Team to discuss how to improve the modeling of the …
Gaining knowledge of the past and present variations of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is crucial for the development of accurate future climate projections. The short range covered by …

Deep learning is a powerful tool to represent subgrid processes in climate models, but many application cases have so far used idealized settings and deterministic approaches. Here, we develop stochastic …
Ocean eddy activity in the high-latitude Southern Ocean is linked to critical drivers of the global climate, yet it is missing from effectively all projections of climate change due to …
Robust projections and predictions of climate variability and change, particularly at regional scales, rely on the driving processes being represented with fidelity in model simulations. Consequently, the role of enhanced …

There is agreement on how the North Atlantic Oscillation forces the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, but the existence of a reversed interaction is widely disputed. Here, we investigate this type …

Climate-coupled models typically overestimate the amplitude of the seasonal cycle of sea surface salinity (SSS) in the tropics. A better understanding of the mechanisms controlling the seasonal variance of SSS …
