RISVelocity Errors in Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler Measurements due to Platform Attitude Variations and Their Effect on Volume Transport Estimates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Attitude (pitch, roll, and heading) variations of the platform on which acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) are mounted will affect the measurements of water velocity using ADCPs. The major correction required to ...
Variability of Shallow and Deep Western Boundary Currents off the Bahamas during 2004–05: Results from the 26°N RAPID–MOC Array
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Data from an array of six moorings deployed east of Abaco, Bahamas, along 26.5°N during March 2004?May 2005 are analyzed. These moorings formed the western boundary array of a transbasin observing system designed to ...
Basinwide Integrated Volume Transports in an Eddy-Filled Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The temporal evolution of the strength of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in the subtropical North Atlantic is affected by both remotely forced, basin-scale meridionally coherent, climate-relevant ...
Seasonal Variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation at 26.5°N
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) makes the strongest oceanic contribution to the meridional redistribution of heat. Here, an observation-based, 48-month-long time series of the vertical structure and ...
A New Index for the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation at 26°N
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) has received considerable attention, motivated by its major role in the global climate system. Observations of AMOC strength at 26°N made by the Rapid Climate Change ...
Continuous, Array-Based Estimates of Atlantic Ocean Heat Transport at 26.5°N
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ontinuous estimates of the oceanic meridional heat transport in the Atlantic are derived from the Rapid Climate Change?Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) and Heatflux Array (RAPID?MOCHA) observing system deployed ...
