  abstract = {{T}he dynamical link between the {I}ndian {O}cean and {A}tlantic {M}eridional {O}verturning {C}irculation ({AMOC}) remains poorly understood. {T}his partly arises from the complex {A}gulhas leakage, which occurs via rings, cyclones, and non-eddy flux. {H}indcast simulations suggest that leakage has recently increased but have not decomposed this signal into its constituent mechanisms. {H}ere these are isolated in a realistic ocean model. {I}ncreases in simulated leakage are attributed to stronger eddy and non-eddy-driven transports, and a strong warming and salinification, especially within {A}gulhas rings. {V}ariability in both regimes is associated with strengthening {I}ndian {O}cean westerly winds, reflecting an increasingly positive {S}outhern {A}nnular {M}ode. {W}hile eddy and non-eddy flux signals are tied through turbulent eddy dissipation, the ratio between the two varies decadally. {C}onsequently, while altimetry suggests a recent increase in retroflection turbulence and implied leakage, non-eddy flux may also play a significant role in modulating the leakage {AMOC} connection.},
