So, for example, a big part of what drives a hurricane is the fact that you've got a lot of warm water near the surface of the ocean that is transferring heat into the air, and that's what's moving up, and that is a big part of then what's propelling the entire bigger storm system.

This would shut down a global ocean circulation system that is driven by dense, salty water falling to the bottom of the north Atlantic and that ultimately produces the Gulf Stream.

These large systems of rotating currents are common in Earth's oceans, where they are driven by wind.

Study co-author Katy Sheen, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow from Ocean and Earth Science at the University of Southampton, says: «These findings will help us to understand the processes that drive the ocean circulation and mixing so that we can better predict how our Earth system will respond to the increased levels of carbon dioxide that we have released into the atmosphere.&rOcean and Earth Science at the University of Southampton, says: «These findings will help us to understand the processes that drive the ocean circulation and mixing so that we can better predict how our Earth system will respond to the increased levels of carbon dioxide that we have released into the atmosphere.&rocean circulation and mixing so that we can better predict how our Earth system will respond to the increased levels of carbon dioxide that we have released into the atmosphere.»

These variations originate primarily from fluctuations in carbon uptake by land ecosystems driven by the natural variability of the climate system, rather than by oceans or from changes in the levels of human - made carbon emissions.

Not long now before all these dynamics in the climate system being driven by global warming from GHGs will line up almost all at once like dominoes (from the Arctic to the antarctic and across all continents and oceans).

If not, might not we want to assume, for the sake of risk assessment, that this will drive faster break down in the system and faster heating of the planet as the ability of the ocean to support life is diminished, and likely it's ability to continue to act as a carbon sink?

Ocean acidification comes from GHGs, but not eutrophication which is driven primarily by chemical and soil runoff which comes from ignorance of natural systems design and the dysfunctional food system.

Jeff Tollefson, in Nature (http://www.nature.com/news/climate-change-the-case-of-the-missing-heat-1.14525): «For several years, scientists wrote off the stall as noise in the climate system: the natural variations in the atmosphere, oceans and biosphere that drive warm or cool spells around the globe.

A water based system doesn't achieve much, as the oceans participate in weather and climate, but aren't the primary driving forces, which are global atmospheric circulation patterns and greenhouse gases etc..

Many of the surface currents of the world oceans (i.e., the ocean «gyres» which appear as rotating horizontal current systems in the upper ocean) are driven by the wind, however, the sinking in the Arctic is related to the buoyancy forcing (effects that change either the temperature or salinity of the water, and hence its buoyancy).

Higher surface water temperatures in the tropical oceans mean more energy radiating into the atmosphere to drive tropical storm systems, leading to more - destructive storms.

East Coast winter storms, known as «nor» easters» because of the unusual northeasterly direction of the winds as the storm spirals in from the south, are unusual in that they derive their energy not just from large contrasts in temperature that drive most extratropical storm systems, but also from the energy released when water evaporates from the (relatively warm) ocean surface into the atmosphere.

I suspect though that in the end we will establish that it is the chaotic oscillations of the ocean / land / atmosphere system that are driving everything, and everything else is a small perturbation.

---- Wow, even without considering the oceans this displays immense ignorance of basic thermodynamics and principles of what drives weather and the climate system.

Our analyses suggest, rather, that volcanic forcing drives the coupled ocean - atmosphere system more subtly towards a state in which multi-year El Niño - like conditions are favoured, followed by a weaker rebound into a La Niña - like state.»

Primary producers — plant life and ocean phytoplankton — play an integral part of the Earth system; some would say that they drive the entire biosphere.

Foreword by Dr, F, James Rutherford American association for the Advancement of Science «Astronomical Cycle: Scientists believe astronomical cycles touch off changes in the ocean - Atmosphere system that drives the world's climate.

Our analyses suggest, rather, that volcanic forcing drives the coupled ocean - atmosphere system more subtly towards a state in which multi-year El Nin˜o - like conditions are favoured, followed by a weaker rebound into a La Nin˜a - like state.

Indeed, as I argue in this article, I think it will be absolutely essential that we shift much of our current wasteful fossil fuel use (e.g., shipping the same goods back and forth across the ocean, driving gas - powered private automobiles, and producing disposable consumer goods) toward building new infrastructure for long - term resilience (e.g., local food economies, low - energy housing, greenspace, water catchment and storage, clean energy systems, trains, and, yes, wind - powered sea vessels!).

This wind distribution drives a system of surface currents in the uppermost 100 metres of the ocean.

The second substitution is to treat Spencer's non-radiative term — which originally related to internal energy added to the connected climate system (like thermohaline - driven or advective energy changes from deep ocean) as though it were the same as the whole variation in OHC instead of the fluctuations due to ENSO (Effectively, he assumes F - lamda * deltaT = 0).

No doubt there is some feedback from the winds, but since the system is trying to balance an unequal distribution of energy it would make most sense to attribute the «driving» force to the location of the most energy (ocean, not air).

Topic: Ocean Systems Essential Question: How does energy from the Sun drive wind and ocean currOcean Systems Essential Question: How does energy from the Sun drive wind and ocean currocean currents?

Sunlight absorbed by the water is the source of energy in the system (explained well by Bob Tisdale above) so it's ocean temperatures that drive the winds.

Ensemble decadal prediction simulations using the Community Earth System Model (CESM) can skillfully predict past decadal rates of Atlantic winter sea ice change because they do well at predicting THC - driven ocean heat content change in the vicinity of the winter sea ice edge in the Labrador, Greenland, Irminger, and Barents Seas.

I propose that both ocean and air process solar energy at different speeds and moreover they process it independently save that the oceans drive the whole system and the air has to adjust to what the oceans do.

Currents that move through the upper ocean then dive down to depth may move some of the surface heat to the deeper waters, especially where the currents have dived not just from cooling water (hot water would tend to go up, cold water would tend to go down) but because it is driven in «conveyor» systems which may run counter to expectations of where water should go when considering only local conditions, and especially, if the water is dropping because of an increase in salinity.

8 global circulation of deep ocean currents transports warm water to colder areas & cold water to warmer areas efficient heat - transport system drives Earth's climate

«But it does enhance our understanding of interactions between plate tectonics, Earth's climate system, its oceans, and even how the evolution of life is, at least to some extent, driven by this tidal process.»

The ice - covered area increases in autumn at times when passing weather systems drive ice away from land, or induce low - level divergence over open ocean.

The westerlies of middle latitudes and the trade winds of the tropics drive the most prominent features of ocean surface motion, large - scale roughly circular current systems elongated in the east - west direction known as gyres.

The mechanisms that drive the cycling of carbon through the ocean - land - atmosphere system are key to understanding both the functioning of the earth as a system and the scope of our impact on climate.

It also fits my New Climate Model which states that solar variations influence global cloudiness so as to change the proportion of solar energy that gets into the oceans to drive the climate system.

, or 3) a 10 - year «red noise» unpredictable fluctuation of the climate system driven by an ocean heat content fluctuation [Meehl et al, NCC 2011](that, however, in the model simulations would occur in 2055 and 2075!).

It seems doubtful that emergent constraints will be able to provide a useful, reliable constraint on real - world ECS unless and until GCMs are demonstrably able to simulate the climate system — ocean as well as atmosphere — with much greater fidelity, including as to SST warming patterns under multidecadal greenhouse gas driven warming.

The system is both driven and dissipative — the differences in heating with latitude drive convection continually in both atmosphere and oceans.

As if the earths atmosphere and (especially) ocean were passive systems driven intirely by «forcing».

This system involves the sinking of cold saline waters in the subpolar regions of the oceans, an action that helps to drive warmer surface waters poleward from the subtropics.

We find that the energy transport associated with wind - driven ocean gyres is closely coupled to the energy transport of the midlatitude atmosphere so that, for example, the heat transport of both systems scales in approximately the same way with the meridional temperature gradient in midlatitudes.

The Ocean Springs Mississippi does not invoke a «points» system against your Ocean Springs Mississippi driving record, meaning no statutory requirement exists for Ocean Springs Mississippi to automatically revoke or suspend your license based on multiple traffic violations within a given amount of time.
