Origins of Simulated Decadal Variability in the Southern Ocean Region
Pre-industrial control experiments of 15 climate models are used to examine decadal variability in the surface climate of Southern Hemisphere extratropics. We find the climate over the Southern Ocean exhibits large decadal variability in all simulations, underscoring the distinctiveness of this regi...
