Reconciling theories of a mechanically driven meridional overturning circulation with thermohaline forcing and multiple equilibria
It has recently been suggested that the structure and strength of the meridional overturning circulation in the global ocean is governed by the input of mechanical energy to the system by winds and tides. However, it is not clear how this suggestion relates to the existence of multiple equilibria of...
