Full textCFC are anthropogenic. They enter in the ocean by exchange between the ocean and the atmosphere. They are employes as transient tracers. CFC-11, CFC-12, CFC-113 and CCL4 are measured by CPG and purge and trap. In recent water masses new freons are detected. CFCS allow us to characterize and give the age of the different water masses. For example, the DSOW is about 12-16 years old. Different branches of LSW at 500m are observed. The CFC-11 and CFC-12 data in the Labrador sea between 1990 and 2000 allows us to calculate the effective age and average speed of the LSW. LSW at 500 m in the west Irminger basin is due to local convection. The difference of the LSW speed is due to the vintage, the convection scenario and also to the NAO. In 2002 in the North Atlantic Ocean, the LSW is due to weak convection scenario. The multiparameters analysis permit to obtain best age and to determine percentage of each water masses in the CFC-11 transport. The CFC transport across the section between Groenland and Portugal is to south by water masses formed by deep convection (LSW, DSOW, ISOW). The transport of CFC11 is about 0,458 mmol/s and represents more than 6 % of the extracted fluxes of the atmosphere

Full textThe Cretaceous is depicted as the warmest period of the last 300 Ma. The oceanic circulation and location of the source zones of deep-waters are essential to understand the role of oceans in the evolution of the climate during the Cretaceous, yet they remain unclear for this period. The neodymium (Nd) isotopes are used to track oceanic circulation and exchanges between water masses, in both past and modern oceans. The Nd isotope composition (εNd) in the ocean is related to the nature of the surrounding continental landmasses. The oceanic currents transport this isotopic signature, thus every oceanic basin acquires a singular εNd. Unequivocal interpretations of the Cretaceous seawater εNd values stem from the insufficient spatial and temporal cover of available data. This PhD thesis intents to collect the Nd signature of continental margins and in regions without data for the Cretaceous, with special attention given to the potential source zones of deep-water production. Fossil fish teeth, coatings on foraminifera tests and detrital fraction from Cretaceous sediments are analyzed for their εNd. The results are compared to published data sets, in order to identify deep-waters source zones and their evolution throughout the Cretaceous. The links connecting oceanographic, palaeogeographic and climatic changes are investigated with a coupled ocean-atmosphere circulation model

Full textThe last 40 ky, have been characterized by abrupt and high amplitude temperature changes (8 to 15 °C in less than 300 years) in Greenland and in the North Atlantic region, associated with drastic ocean and atmospheric circulation changes. The mechanisms behind these abrupt climate changes are still debated. The objective of this thesis is to quantify the ocean circulation changes associated with these abrupt climate changes. In the first part of this thesis, I combined the information of three geochemical proxies in order to overcome the limitations of each proxy taken separately. The carbon isotopic ratios of the benthic foraminifers (δ13C and Δ14C), as well as the sedimentary Pa/Th ratio, have been measured in the North Atlantic sediment core SU90-08 (43°N, 30°W, 3080m). The proxies depict an apparently inconsistent situation over the last glacial maximum: the carbon isotopes indicate that the deep water mass was poorly ventilated while the Pa/Th evidence an active overturning cell. These observations question the type of signal recorded by each proxy. Besides, in order to quantify the circulation changes, a modeling approach is required. In the second part of this thesis, I have implemented the calculation of the Pa/Th in the climate model of intermediate complexity iLOVECLIM. The model is able to simulate the simultaneous evolution of the three proxies and has been used to decipher the multi-proxy response to abrupt circulation changes. The results show that the proxy response varies in the three main Atlantic water masses. In the deep (>2000m) western North Atlantic, the carbon isotopes response lags the Pa/Th response by a few hundreds of years, exemplifying/illustrating a possible decoupling between the different proxies

Full textCompared to the present-day climate, the cold period of the Last Glacial Maximum was characterized by an expanded sea-ice cover in the Southern Ocean, a shoaled Atlantic deep ocean circulation and a lower atmospheric CO2 concentration. These changes are well-documented by indirect observations but difficult to represent in simulations of climate models. Indeed, these models tend to simulate a too high atmospheric CO2 concentration, a too deep Atlantic deep ocean circulation, and a sea-ice cover with a too circular distribution in the Southern Ocean and a too small winter extent and seasonal amplitude. The model-data discrepancies observed at the Last Glacial Maximum call into question the model representation of some important climate processes. Several studies have underlined the crucial role of the Southern Ocean sea ice on ocean carbon storage capacity and deep circulation. I have therefore focussed on this region to improve our understanding of the processes associated with this storage. Thanks to simulations performed with the Earth System Model iLOVECLIM, I have demonstrated thatthe uncertainties related to ice sheet reconstructions have a limited impact on the variables examined in this study. In contrast, other choices of boundary conditions (influencing the ocean volume and alkalinity adjustment) can yield large changes of carbon sequestration in the ocean. I also show that a simple parameterization of the sinking of brines consequent to sea-ice formation significantly improves the simulated Southern Ocean sea ice, deep ocean circulation and atmospheric CO2 concentration. A set of simulations including the effects of diverse ocean parameterizations is used to show that the too deep ocean circulation simulated by our model cannot be attributed to an insufficient sea-ice cover, whereas convection processes in the Southern Ocean seem crucial to improve both the Southern Ocean sea ice, the deep ocean circulation and the atmospheric CO2 concentration at the Last Glacial Maximum

se sale et sa circulation thermohaline s'affaiblit fortement. Cette thèse conclut de plus à

Full textOur objective is to contribute to the understanding of the functioning of the Mediterranean system using modeling tools. We first study the formation and fate of water masses in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea. The impact of the oceanic model spatial resolution on open-ocean deep convection modeling is examined through a real case study, and is related to the essential role played by the mesoscale structures in the formation and fate of deep water. The comparison of simulations performed under different atmospheric forcings enables to study the influence of the spatial resolution of this forcing on the modeling of deep convection and to underline the importance of atmospheric extremes. We then investigate the impact of interannual atmospheric variability and climate change on dense water formation over the Gulf of Lions shelf. The volumes of dense water formed over the shelf, exported and cascading into the deep ocean are well correlated with the winter atmospheric heat loss. The strengthening of the water column stratification between the XXth and the XXIst centuries induces a strong decrease of these volumes. We examine the impact of physical processes on the planktonic pelagic ecosystem using a coupled hydrodynamical - biogeochemical model. The study of a reference year enables to validate the model and to underline its defects. Primary production and respiration show a weak interannual variability, however, carbon exportation and net metabolism show a stronger variability. Finally, the warming of sea water due to climate change induces an increase of primary production by the end of the XXIth century, together with an enhancement of the microbial loop

Full textThe study of past periods with warmer and higher sea levels than today's has the potential to increase our capacity to predict future climate. Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11, the interglacial period dated around 400000 years ago, has been singled out due to its potential as "analogue" of the present interglacial period, the Holocene. However, the state of ocean circulation, the temperature of surface and deep waters, and sea level during this period are still poorly known. Therefore, my thesis has been devoted to the study of marine sediment cores from the Southern Ocean, a key area for the understanding of global ocean circulation, through analysis of the isotopic composition and trace metal ratios of foraminifera, with the purpose of better constraining climatic conditions during MIS 11. The new data I generated in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean over MIS 12 (i. E. , the glacial period preceding MIS 11) to MIS 11 (Termination V, TV) and data of the last deglaciation (Termination l, TI), show a lag of the changes in deep-water properties with respect to changes in surface conditions. I interpreted these deglacial changes in the South Atlantic as the response to changes in the state of the Atlantic meridional ocean circulation (AMOC). Model simulations suggest that the late response of bottom waters is explained by increased inflow of North Atlantic. Deep Water (NADW) to the South Atlantic at the time of the AMOC recovery. The sequence of events is similar during both terminations; however, the magnitude of the deep-water lag differs, suggesting variations in the magnitude of the AMOC perturbation. Indeed, the comparison of Southern Ocean and North Atlantic records evidences an iceberg discharge event in the North Atlantic during TV of bigger magnitude than the one happening during TI, probably resulting from the extreme glacial character of MIS 12. My reconstructions of carbonate ion saturation state in the Atlantic and Indian sectors of the Southern Ocean show that it has remained constant through TV and TI, possibly indicating a compensating effect of higher alkalinity Weddell Sea deep waters during glacial periods. Finally, the comparison of my estimates of Southern Ocean bottom water temperature with a global compilation of benthic oxygen isotope records indicates that sea level during MIS12 was approximately 14 m lower than during the LGM, and that during MIS 11, sea level was at most 10 m higher than presently
