On the Connection between Dense Water Formation, Overturning, and Poleward Heat Transport in a Convective Basin* (2006, background): “The dense North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW), from the Nordic seas overflows, circulates around the basin at depth, in the deep western boundary current (Lazier and Wright 1993), and fills the bottom of the sea’s interior.”

The Role of Eddies in Determining the Structure and Response of the Wind-Driven Southern Hemisphere Overturning: Results from the Modeling Eddies in the Southern Ocean (MESO) Project (2006, background): “Talley (2003) finds essentially no conversion of dense waters to light waters within the Southern Ocean.”
Observations, inferences, and mechanisms of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation: A review (2016, methodology): “…estimates of the AMOC and Atlantic OHT utilize trans-Atlantic hydrographic sections at a few selected latitudes, primarily 24.5∘N, 36∘N, and 48∘N [Bryan, 1962; Bryden and Hall, 1980; Hall and Bryden, 1982; Talley, 1999, 2003; Talley et al., 2003; McDonagh et al., 2010; Atkinson et al., 2012].”
An assessment of oceanic variability for 1960–2010 from the GFDL ensemble coupled data assimilation (2013, background): “1b) is much smaller than ones during the twentieth century, even though it is still consistent with the observational estimate of 0.73 ± 0.2 PW at 8 N (Talley 2003).”
A minimum thermodynamic model for the bipolar seesaw (2003, neutral): “This is consistent with recent observations showing northward meridional heat transport at 30 S [Talley, 2003].”
Causes of Interannual–Decadal Variability in the Meridional Overturning Circulation of the Midlatitude North Atlantic Ocean (2008, background): “Both FLAME cases exhibit maximum streamfunction values (referred to as the MOC maximum) here of about 18 Sv, in agreement with observational accounts (18.9 4 Sv; Talley 2003) and inverse studies (17 4 Sv; Ganachaud and Wunsch 2000).”
Eddy-Induced Heat Transport in the Subtropical North Pacific from Argo, TMI, and Altimetry Measurements (2005, background): “In contrast to a weak poleward transport predicted by SUW, the present study suggests a sizable poleward eddy heat transport of 0.1 PW. This eddy heat transport value may be compared with the total meridional heat transport across 24°N, which has been estimated to be in the range of 0.45‐0.81 PW (e.”
A Review of the Role of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in Atlantic Multidecadal Variability and Associated Climate Impacts (2019, background): “…NADW in the deep Atlantic, is a major source for the substantial northward Atlantic heat transport across the equator (e.g., Bryan, 1962; Ganachaud & Wunsch, 2000; Hastenrath, 1980, 1982; Sverdrup, 1957; Talley, 2003; Trenberth & Caron, 2001; Trenberth & Fasullo, 2008; Trenberth & Solomon, 1994).”
The GFDL CM3 Coupled Climate Model: Characteristics of the Ocean and Sea Ice Simulations (2011, background): “1 to adequately simulate the Talley (2003) observational estimates of meridional volume transport across 32 8 S in the Atlantic Ocean.”
Multi-centennial variability controlled by Southern Ocean convection in the Kiel Climate Model (2013, background): “This transport is relatively high with 1–1.2 PW in KCM compared to observational estimates and other models (citations in Pierce et al. 1995, Table 1; Trenberth and Caron 2001; Talley 2003; Volkov et al. 2010), which favors the recharge mechanism.”
