Sensitivity of Southern Ocean overturning to wind stress changes: Role of surface restoring time scales
The influence of different surface restoring time scales on the response of the Southern Ocean overturning circulation to wind stress changes is investigated using an idealised channel model. Regardless of the restoring time scales chosen, the eddy-induced meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is...
