Short summary
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a major part of the ocean circulation. Satellite gravimetry missions, like GRACE, which measure changes in Earth's mass distribution, could help monitor changes in the AMOC by detecting variations in ocean bottom pressure. To help assess if future satellite missions could detect these changes, we used ocean model simulation data to study their connection. Additionally, we created a synthetic data set for future satellite mission simulations.
