A modelling study of the Bjerknes compensation in the meridional heat transport in a freshening ocean
The compensation between the meridional heat transports in the atmosphere and ocean is studied through a coupled model's water-hosing experiments. It is found that the atmospheric heat transport (AHT) change compensates the oceanic heat transport (OHT) change very well in the extratropics...
