Impact of Ekman Pumping on the Meridional Coherence of the AMOC

Impact of Ekman Pumping on the Meridional Coherence of the AMOC

Abstract The effect of wind‐induced vertical velocity on the meridional coherence of Atlantic meridional overtuning circulation (AMOC) is examined using theory, observations, and a numerical model. Two cases are considered: (a) the AMOC computed in depth coordinates and (b) the AMOC computed in isop...
