Uniqueness and variability of the ocean's thermohaline circulation
A numerical modelling approach is chosen to study equilibrium and time-dependent aspects of the ocean's thermohaline circulation. In the first part, the roles of basin geometry and surface buoyancy forcing in determining the asymmetry of the present-day thermohaline circulation are considered....
