Deep convection in the oceans, particularly at high latitudes, plays an important role in the climate systems of the world's oceans and atmosphere. This study was conducted to examine atmospheric forcing effects on deep convection in the Labrador Sea. The Naval Postgraduate School one dimensional ocean mixed layer model was applied to the Labrador Sea from February 12 to March 10, 1997. The model was initialized and forced with oceanographic and atmospheric data collected onboard the RN Knorr during the first field program of the Labrador Sea Deep Convection Experiment. An ocean mixed layer depth close to 1300 m was predicted and verified using the observed data. A sensitivity study was conducted using deviations from observations as input to determine how variations in atmospheric forcing could lead to the observed and even deepened ocean mixed layer. Observed Conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) data were used to verify the model's spatial and temporal predictions of mixed layer temperature, salinity and depth. Model predicted mixed layer depths were usually slightly deeper than those observed. The final model output predicted temperature rather accurately, but model predicted salinity values were consistently low. A variety of sensitivity studies gave new insight to the individual influences of surface fluxes, momentum stresses, precipitation, salinity and individual storm variations to the mixed layer temperature, salinity and depth of the Labrador Sea.

Air-Sea Interaction: Laws and Mechanisms provides a comprehensive account of how the atmosphere and the ocean interact to control the global climate, what physical laws govern this interaction, and what are its prominent mechanisms. It is mainly directed towards graduate students and research scientists in meteorology, oceanography, and environmental engineering. The book will be of value on entry level courses in meteorology and oceanography, and also to the broader physics community interested in the treatment of transfer laws, and thermodynamics of the atmosphere and ocean.

Download Towards Predicting Deep Convection in the Labrador Sea Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
We have developed and implemented a method to use real time oceanographic data in conjunction with climatological air-sea flux data to predict the location and strength of deep convection in the Labrador Sea a few weeks in advance. In preparation for this task we have gathered and analyzed a number of historical and recent data sets. In particular the results of a recent mooring deployment during the winter of 1994-1995 gave new insight into the convective process in the Labrador Sea.

We are only now beginning to understand the climatic impact of the remarkable events that are now occurring in subarctic waters. Researchers, however, have yet to agree upon a predictive model that links change in our northern seas to climate. This volume brings together the body of evidence needed to develop climate models that quantify the ocean exchanges through subarctic seas, measure their variability, and gauge their impact on climate.

" ... as soon as one has traversed the greater part of the wild sea, one comes upon such a huge quantity of ice that nowhere in the whole world has the like been known." "This ice is of a wonderful nature. It lies at times quite still, as one would expect, with openings or large fjords in it; but sometimes its movement is so strong and rapid as to equal that of a ship running before the wind, and it drifts against the wind as often as with it." Kongespeilet - 1250 A.D. ("The Mirror of Kings") Modern societies require increasing amounts influence on the water mass and on the resulting of scientific information about the environment total environment of the region; therefore, cer tain of its characteristics will necessarily be in whieh they live and work. For the seas this information must describe the air above the sea, included.
