The South Atlantic plays an important role in the climate of the adjacent continents and contributes actively to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). Despite this, and the advance achieved since the World Ocean Current Experiment (WOCE) in the nineties, our understanding of the South Atlantic variability still lags behind that of other basins. In...
Today, we are pleased to launch the CLIVAR Atlantic Ocean Blog (AOB) (https://www.clivar.org/atlantic-blog), a blog about the Atlantic Ocean - variability, predictability and change. The AOB is a spinoff from the CLIVAR Atlantic Region Panel (...
Tropical ocean basins influence each other on seasonal and longer timescales. Variations in the Atlantic multi-decadal variability (AMV) can drive changes in the tropical Pacific and Indian Oceans via atmospheric teleconnections, even modulating global warming.
To have a systematic study on those topics, the 4th Summer School on Theory, Mechanisms and Hierarchical Modeling of Climate...
As decided by the CLIVAR SSG co-chairs, the initial part of the 28th Session of the CLIVAR SSG would be held online on two sessions. The first part was organized on the 5th...
