Numerical evidence against reversed thermohaline circulation in the warm Paleocene/Eocene ocean
The question of whether deep water formation might have occurred in subtropical latitudes in the early Cenozoic is examined through use of a global ocean model forced by mixed boundary conditions. Zonal mean surface temperatures and wind stresses are derived from an atmospheric general circulation m...
