Abstract

The large-scale ocean circulation has a relevant impact on the Earth’s climate. It is determined by deep-water and surface water currents transporting both energy and mass around the globe. Variations in salinity and temperature affect the density of sea water which in turn leads to a driving force in the over-all dynamics. Model approaches on the basis of boxes for salinity and temperature in the various polar and equatorial regions allow realistic simulation of system dynamics while keeping the model complexity low. In this work we investigate the influence of density variations on the system dynamics and stability. Thereby we focus on density contributions initiated by advection processes within a box. A comparative study of selected box models reveals the dependence of the influence of this process on parameters and model approach.
