Can the ocean’s intrinsic dynamics feedback on the atmosphere?
August 17, 2021 10:38 am Comments Off on Can the ocean’s intrinsic dynamics feedback on the atmosphere?The ocean’s much larger heat capacity acts as “memory” suppressing the atmosphere’s “high-frequency variability” (over time scales of weeks) while producing oceanic motions that vary over longer time scales. This paradigm aims to explain how low-frequency variability emerges in the ocean. But, recently, this paradigm has been challenged.
