Observations of Barotropic Oscillations and Their Influence on Mixing in the Faroe Bank Channel Overflow Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations of hydrography, currents, and microstructure are presented together with sea surface height (SSH) patterns from concurrent satellite tracks to describe the subinertial oscillations in the region downstream of ...
Variability and Mixing of the Filchner Overflow Plume on the Continental Slope, Weddell Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A large fraction of Antarctic Bottom Water is produced in the Weddell Sea, through mixing between the cold and dense shelf water masses and the warm and saline off-shelf water. We present observations of the dense Filchner ...
On the Seasonal Signal of the Filchner Overflow, Weddell Sea, Antarctica
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he cold ice shelf water (ISW) that formed below the Filchner?Ronne Ice Shelf in the southwestern Weddell Sea, Antarctica, escapes the ice shelf cavity through the Filchner Depression and spills over its sill at a rate of ...
Subinertial Oscillations on the Amundsen Sea Shelf, Antarctica
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ooring data from the western flank of Dotson trough, Amundsen Sea shelf region, show the presence of barotropic oscillations with a period of 40?80 h. The oscillations are visible in velocity, temperature, salinity, and ...
