Mountain ranges favour vigorous Atlantic meridional overturning

[1] We use a global Ocean-Atmosphere General Circulation Model (OAGCM) to show that the major mountain ranges of the world have a significant role in maintenance of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). A simulation with mountains has a maximum AMOC of 18 Sv (1 Sv = 10 m s ) compared with 0 Sv for a simulation without mountains. Atlantic heat transport at 25°N is 1.1 PW with m...

Interference of lee waves over mountain ranges

Internal waves in the atmosphere and ocean are generated frequently from the interaction of mean flow with bottom obstacles such as mountains and submarine ridges. Analysis of these environmental phenomena involves theoretical models of non-homogeneous fluid affected by the gravity. In this paper, a semi-analytical model of stratified flow over the mountain range is considered under the assumpt...

Orographic precipitation and the relief of mountain ranges

[1] The influence of climate on the relief of mountain ranges has long been supposed but has received little quantitative investigation. The simplified system of a longitudinal river profile in a bedrock channel coupled to a physically based model of orographic precipitation is used to explore how orographically influenced patterns of precipitation affect the relief of fluvially sculpted mounta...

Topographic controls on erosion rates in tectonically active mountain ranges

The functional relationship between erosion rate and topography is central to understanding both controls on global sediment flux and the potential for feedback between tectonics, climate, and erosion in shaping topography. Analysis of a high-resolution (10-m-grid) DEM transect across the convergent orogen of the Olympic Mountains reveals a non-linear relation between long-term erosion rates an...
