Atmospheric Lifetime of Fossil Fuel Carbon Dioxide (2009)
Archer, David, Eby, Michael, Brovkin, Victor, Ridgwell, Andy, Cao, Long, Mikolajewicz, Uwe, ...
CO2 released from combustion of fossil fuels equilibrates among the various carbon reservoirs of the atmosphere, the ocean, and the terrestrial biosphere on timescales of a few centuries. However, a...
On the Competing Roles of Heat and Fresh Water Flux in Forcing Thermohaline Oscillations (2008)
David W. Pierce, Tim P. Barnett, Uwe Mikolajewicz
We describe the physical mechanisms causing century-scale Southern Ocean thermohaline oscilla-tions in the Hamburg Large Scale Geostrophic model, a primitive equation oceanic general circulation...
Stochastically forced variability in the Antarctic Circumpolar (1999)
Ralf Weisse, Uwe Mikolajewicz, Andreas Sterl, Sybren S. Drijfhout
Interannual fluctuations in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) were considered. In the present study we analyze a mode of variability in the Hamburg Large-Scale Geostrophic ocean general...
Decadal variability of the North Atlantic in an ocean general circulation (1994)
Ralf Weisse, Uwe Mikolajewicz, Ernst Maier-reimer
Abstract. Climatic fluctuations on a decadal timescale in the North Atlantic in a global ocean general circulation model were considered. The analysis was carried out for the 3800-year stochastic...
