forcing in the Hadley Centre coupled ocean-atmosphere model (HadCM3) are reported; the study forms part of a Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Rapid programme project. An analysis of 100 years of the HadCM3 control run indicates that deep convection occurs in the Greenland Sea, the Irminge...
