We noticed that Agulhas leakage is indeed higher in the year 2000 CO2 level control runs, but no significant increasing trend in the climate change simulation. It might be due to …
The interannual variability of Agulhas leakage is accessed in an ocean eddy resolving coupled simulation to test the hypothesis that, on such timescales large-scale forcing …
The leakage of warm and salty water from the Indian Ocean via the Agulhas system into the South Atlantic may play a critical role in climate variability by modulating the buoyancy …
Agulhas leakage brings warn and salty waters from the Indian Ocean into the South Atlantic, which can potentially affect the stability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning …
The Meridional overturning circulation (MOC) plays a crucial role in the climate system by transporting heat northward in the Atlantic basin. Feeding warm and salty water from the …
The Agulhas leakage brings warm and saline water from the Indian Ocean into the South Atlantic, forming part of the returning branch of the global thermohaline circulation, an …
The senstivity of leakage estimates to the model output velocity frequency needs to be addressed before we can apply it to investigate its link to climate variability.
