Precise Calculations of the Existence of Multiple AMOC Equilibria in Coupled Climate Models. Part II: Transient Behavior
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract In Part I of this paper an evolution equation for the Atlantic salinity and the reverse cell strength in the North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) OFF state was formulated. Here, an analytical solution to this equation is used to test its validity in the context of transient solutions. In this study several transient scenarios in the general circulation model are examined to determine the accuracy of the predictions made with the material in Part I. The authors also determine how well the basic premises of Part I hold throughout these transient behaviors. The unstable equilibria that mark the upper boundary of the OFF state attraction basin are elucidated by the time-dependent behavior shown here. Transient equilibration from one stable NADW OFF state to another in response to changes in the anomalous salt flux H is accurately described by the evolution equation. The theory also explains the distribution of decay times for the NADW OFF state around the maximum critical Atlantic surface flux. Exceedingly long collapse times in excess of 50 000 years are found for surface flux values slightly in excess of the critical value.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
