Interannual middle-latitude atmosphere-ocean interactions
This thesis discusses the interaction of atmosphere and ocean in midlatitudes on interannual and decadal timescales. We investigate the extent to which mutuallycoupled atmosphere-ocean feedback can explain the observed coupled variability on these timescales, and look for preferred modes of …

The role of biosphere-atmosphere-ocean interactions in the climate of West Africa during the Middle Holocene
… symmetric, synchronously coupled biosphere-atmosphere model (ZonaIBAM), which includes explicit representation of ecosystem dynamics, has been developed and validated based on current forcings over the region of West Africa. Here, we use ZonalBAM to study the response of the coupled …

Internal wave generation and its impact at the island Shelf
… bathymetry, a narrow insular shelf, and strong atmosphere–ocean interactions. Although Madeira has been widely studied in terms of wake dynamics, mesoscale variability, and wind–island interactions, no systematic assessment of internal wave generation had been conducted in this area of the …

Modeled sensitivity of the northwestern Pacific upper-ocean responses to tropical cyclones in a fully coupled climate model with varying ocean grid resolution
… contribute to Earth's climate, but TC-climate interactions are largely unexplored in fully-coupled models. Here we analyze the upper-ocean response to TCs using a high resolution Earth system model, in which a 0.5° atmosphere is coupled to an ocean with two different horizontal resolutions: 1° …
