Abstract:

The first two empirical orthogonal functions of the winter (DJF) surface air temperature (SAT) over North America are associated with the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the Pacific/North American (PNA) pattern in the NCEP reanalysis. Lagged correlations between the North American SAT structures and the sea surface temperature (SST) were computed. There is a small lag between the tri-pole SST anomaly pattern of the North Atlantic Ocean and the first SAT mode. The second SAT mode lags the eastern Tropical Pacific SST anomaly by two months, associated with ENSO through the winter. A similar

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to provide a more comprehensive and dynamic understanding of sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) re-emergence in the North Atlantic, by (a) re-evaluating the utility of re-emergence for sea surface temperature (SST) variability quantitatively and/or by analysing its temporal variability, and (b) investigating the e�ects of horizontal advection, subduction and mesoscale phenomena on the occurrence and nature of SSTA re-emergence in the ocean. Such analyses may contribute towards an improved representation of SSTA re-emergence in seasonal forecast models, which is cu

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the physical controls of variability in phytoplankton abundance in the subpolar North Atlantic. A multi-decadal set of monthly SST data (HadISST1) is used to identify the dominant variability in the SST annual cycle during the period 1870-2009. Long-term variability in phytoplankton abundance is examined using data from the in situ Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) observations for 1946-2007. Physical factors that determine the strength of the annual phytoplankton bloom are identified using a state-of-the-art coupled physical and biogeochemical model. Mixed layer dept

Previous correlations have been established between the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and both the tropical north Atlantic sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) and precipitation anomalies in the southeastern and mid-Atlantic states.

Significant correlations between Pacific SSTs and precipitation were found during winter months which agree with previous literature. The relationship with the Atlantic SSTs was less

The responses to positive and negative sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the North Pacific are computed with a time-dependent, quasi-geostrophic, global spectral model with a T21 horizontal resolution and three levels in the vertical. The simplicity of the model allows a large number of cases starting from different initial conditions to be run. The model produces on average a ridge (low) downstream of the warm (cold) SST anomaly, but the average response to the warm anomaly is much weaker and statistically less significant than that to the cold anomaly.

Hence, we sought to identify and demonstrate how a particularly germane SST dataset can be used within the scope of global climate change research.

Abstract:

Climate variability in the North Atlantic has been linked in part to the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). The NAO influences marine ecosystems in the northwestern Atlantic and the transport variability of the cold Labrador Current (LC). Understanding historic patterns and predicting future changes in LC transport require long-term and high-resolution climate records that are not available from instrumental data sets. This thesis presents the first century-scale sea surface temperature (SST)reconstructions from the Northwestern Atlantic using Mg/Ca ratios in the long-lived crustose coralline a
