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 ...

Abstract: he ice shelves in the Amundsen Sea are thinning rapidly, and the main reason for their decline appears to be warm ocean currents circulating below the ice shelves and melting these from below. Ocean currents transport warm ...
