A Study on the Relationship between the Air-Sea Density Flux and Isopycnal Meridional Overturning Circulation in a Warming Climate
The Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) plays an important part in the Earth's climate, but the mechanisms that determine MOC response to climate change remain unclear. In particular, the relative importance of the adiabatic and diabatic dynamics in MOC is still under debate. This study...
