A coupled ocean-atmosphere climate model: temperature versus salinity effects on the thermohaline circulation

A simple nonlinear three-box ocean model of the North Atlantic Ocean including the rudiments of eddy mixing, vertical stratification and thermohaline circulation is first presented. It is subject to uniform latitudinal differential heating, q, and net evaporation m sub(e) , and includes a linear equ...
