Summary: | The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has profound impacts on the climate of the North Atlantic and the global climate at large. It plays a significant role in redistributing heat and freshwater around the globe. Real-time AMOC measurement began in 2004, providing monthly observation of the stream function. Although this observation exhibits large intra-to-multi-annual variability, the records are too short to make inferences about intra-annual AMOC variability. Here, we present a 10-member ensemble simulated AMOC from a stand-alone ocean model MPI-OM. We nudge the ocean model in the surface to proxy the reconstructed SST of Samakinwa et al., 2021, thereby leading to a proxy-constrained Modeled AMOC for the period 1450 - 1780 CE.
