Large bio-geographical shifts in the north-eastern Atlantic Ocean: From the subpolar gyre, via plankton, to blue whiting and pilot whales (2009, methodology): “The Nansen Center version (Bentsen et al., 2004; Drange et al., 2005) of the MICOM (Miami Isopycnal Coordinate Ocean Model) (Bleck et al., 1992) was used, forced with daily mean NCEP/NCAR (Kalnay et al., 1996) reanalyses of fresh water, heat, and momentum fluxes for the period 1948–2003.”
The Norwegian Earth System Model, NorESM1-M – Part 1: Description and basic evaluation of the physical climate (2013, background): “Bergen during the last decade (e.g. Bentsen et al., 2004; Drange et al., 2005b; Lohman et al., 2009; Orre et al., 2010), originating from the Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model (MICOM) (Bleck et al., 1992).”
Causes of Interannual–Decadal Variability in the Meridional Overturning Circulation of the Midlatitude North Atlantic Ocean (2008, methodology): “This appears consistent with the magnitude [O(10%–20%) of the mean] of the MOC variability that has been a typical result of ocean model integrations using atmospheric forcing based on atmospheric reanalysis data (Häkkinen 1999; Eden and Willebrand 2001; Gulev et al. 2003; Beismann and Barnier 2004;”
On the Connection between Dense Water Formation, Overturning, and Poleward Heat Transport in a Convective Basin* (2006, background): “For example, a strengthening of convection in the Labrador Sea will precede an intensification of the MOC and poleward heat transport (Eden and Willebrand 2001; Bentsen et al. 2004).”
Observations, inferences, and mechanisms of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation: A review (2016, background): “…data products show increasing trends in the North Atlantic MOC in the 1980s to the mid-1990s and decreasing trends thereafter [e.g., Häkkinen, 1999; Beismann and Barnier, 2004; Bentsen et al., 2004; Böning et al., 2006; Deshayes and Frankignoul, 2008; Robson et al., 2012; Danabasoglu et al., 2016].”
Response of the North Atlantic subpolar gyre to persistent North Atlantic oscillation like forcing (2009, methodology): “Ha ¨kkinen 1999; Haak et al. 2003; Bentsen et al. 2004; de Coetlogon et al. 2006).”
Is the thermohaline circulation changing (2006, background): “Changes in the simulated hydrographic properties, such as the thickness of LSW or indices for the strength of horizontal circulation in the North Atlantic, are generally consistent with the observations (Bentsen et al. 2004; Haak et al. 2003).”
