Abstract: n this study, the salinity budget of the North Atlantic subtropical salinity maximum region for control volumes bounded by isohaline surfaces is analyzed. The authors provide closed budgets based on output from a high-resolution ...

Abstract: Ocean ventilation is the process by which climatically important tracers such as heat and carbon are exchanged between the atmosphere and ocean interior. In this paper a series of numerical simulations are used to study ...

Abstract: ubmesoscale dynamics are hypothesized to play a leading-order role in setting the stratification of the mixed layer via the interaction of submesoscale eddies and surface forcing. Previous studies of such interactions have ...

Abstract: bservations made in the Scotia Sea during the May 2015 Surface Mixed Layer Evolution at Submesoscales (SMILES) research cruise captured submesoscale, O(1-10 km), variability along the periphery of a mesoscale O(10-100 km) ...
