Eddy Advective and Diffusive Transports of Heat and Salt in the Southern Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There are two distinct mechanisms by which eddies provide systematic transport of tracer on isopycnals: the advective transport, associated with the slumping of isopycnals, and the diffusive transport, associated with ...
Impact of Eddy-Induced Transport on the Lagrangian Structure of the Upper Branch of the Thermohaline Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effect of the eddy-induced transport (EIT) on the Lagrangian structure of the upper branch of the thermohaline circulation is investigated. The Lagrangian pathways, transport, and flow characteristics such as the ...
