A comparison of model and GRACE estimates of the large-scale seasonal cycle in ocean bottom pressure
TL;DR: In this article, seasonal variability in ocean bottom pressure p b is analyzed using GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) data products and an optimized model solution obtained by fitting most available ocean data in a least-squares sense.

TL;DR: This document reports on recent advances in the development of the adjoint code generator OpenAD/F, a numerical model designed for study of the atmosphere, ocean, and climate that is based on the MIT General Circulation Model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal Excitation of Interannual Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation Variability
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the optimal excitation of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC) anomalies in an ocean general circulation model with an idealized configuration.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the consistency and skill of different ODA products in simulating ITF transport, and found that the best consistency among the products occurs on seasonal-to-interannual time scales, with generally stronger (weaker) ITF during boreal summer (winter) and during La Nina (El Nino) events.
