Can Andean Uplift Enhance the Pacific Meridional Overturning Circulation?
The uplift of major mountain ranges can exert a strong influence on ocean circulation through large-scale atmosphere–ocean interactions. Using topography-sensitive simulations with the Community Earth System Model 1.0, we isolate the role of the Andes in shaping Pacific climate and ocean circulation. Andean uplift...
