The fluxes of heat and fres hwater through the Arctic gateways have been suggested to change in the fu ture which can in turn affect the distribution of the Arctic sea-ice\, and alter the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. Here we intend to understand the relative importance of the Bering Strait and the Canadian A rctic Archipelago (CAA) in transporting heat and freshwater fluxes\, and t he corresponding regions where they affect the most. We use a regional con figuration of the fully coupled ice-ocean model\, NEMO (Nucleus for Europe an Modelling of the Ocean model) version 3.4 for a set of sensitivity expe riments with various gateway configurations inspired by paleogeometries of the Arctic. In order to reduce the degrees of freedom introduced by the p resence of multiple straits in the system\, we compare our model scenarios with the case in which both Bering and CAA are closed. We show that CAA a nd Bering Strait have nearly opposite impact on the Arctic Sea ice. While the impact of CAA is more limited to the Arctic\, the Bering Strait affect s the Atlantic Ocean and plays a role in its zonal density gradient. The r esults will allow us to better understand the impacts caused by modulation of the Bering Strait and CAA fluxes\, and better founded predictions of f uture changes.\n DTSTART:20151007T183000Z DTEND:20151007T193000Z LOCATION:Room 934\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Student Seminar: Mehdi Pasha Karami Arokhloo URL:/meteo/channels/event/student-seminar-mehdi-pasha- karami-arokhloo-255053 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
