Evaluation of the GECCO2 ocean synthesis: transports of volume, heat and freshwater in the Atlantic (2015, methodology): “Modifications to the adjoint are necessary because of the nonlinearity of the model and are as described in Köhl and Stammer (2008b).”
Observations, inferences, and mechanisms of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation: A review (2016, background): “Pohlmann et al. [2009] show that a coupled model initialized with the GECCO state estimate is able to make skillful predictions of North Atlantic SST and UOHC on interannual to decadal timescales, but AMOC predictions are only more skillful than damped persistence on timescales of about 5 years.”
Two tales of initializing decadal climate predictions experiments with the ECHAM5/MPI-OM model (2012, methodology): “…members are generated by very slightly perturbing the atmospheric horizontal diffusion coefficient (on the order of 1026 m2 s21). c. Experimental design of the GECCO initialized hindcasts The GECCO project (Köhl and Stammer 2008) provides the initial conditions for the GECCO initialization.”
An assessment of oceanic variability for 1960–2010 from the GFDL ensemble coupled data assimilation (2013, result): “This long-term downward trend is consistent with the result from Balmaseda et al. (2007) (-0.07 Sv/year for 1959–2006), but it disagrees with that of Köhl and Stammer (2008) (?”
Initializing Decadal Climate Predictions with the GECCO Oceanic Synthesis: Effects on the North Atlantic (2009, methodology): “In contrast, the MOC around 258N is strongly influenced by Rossby waves (Köhl 2005; Hirschi et al. 2007; Köhl and Stammer 2008b), which would not be predictable, especially when baroclinically unstable (Köhl 2005; Köhl and Stammer 2008b).”
