• Intermodel variability of the poleward shift of the austral jet stream in the CMIP3 integrations linked to biases in 20th century climatology (2010, background): “The eddy‐driven surface westerlies drive the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, and so influence the ocean’s meridional overturning and the uptake of carbon in the southern ocean [Toggweiler et al., 2006; Anderson et al., 2009; Toggweiler and Lea, 2010].”
• On the Relationship between Southern Ocean Overturning and ACC Transport (2013, background): “The strong link between outgassing and overturning (Toggweiler et al. 2006) has led to the suggestion that the Southern Ocean sink has weakened in response to increased westerly”
• El Niño–Southern Oscillation–like variability during glacial terminations and interlatitudinal teleconnections (2008, background): “However, during terminations, Antarctic sea ice starts to withdraw because of increased seasonal insolation (high obliquity), at the time that the EEP shows predominant La Nin˜a–like conditions (low precession) which promote a southward shift of the westerlies (Figure 4). This interpretation is supp”
• Lowering of glacial atmospheric CO2 in response to changes in oceanic circulation and marine biogeochemistry (2007, methodology): “, 2006; Watson and Garabato, 2006] and a study using an oceanic general circulation model [Toggweiler et al., 2006].”
• Temperature dependency of metabolic rates in the upper ocean: A positive feedback to global climate change? (2018, background): “, due to wind forcing (Toggweiler et al., 2006; Banderas et al., 2012; Menviel et al., 2018); and changes in ocean productivity affecting the ocean biological pump (Sigman and Boyle, 2001; Brovkin et al.”
