RISOceanic Fluxes on the WOCE A11 Section
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The most southerly WOCE one-time section in the South Atlantic, designated A11, was occupied in January 1993. The cruise track lay across the cool subantarctic zone of the Circumpolar Current in the west and the warm ...
Bottom Currents Derived from a Shipborne ADCP on WOCE Cruise A11 in the South Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper is divided into two parts: the first describing an enhancement of the shipborne ADCP system and the second describing information about bottom currents that have been obtained therefrom on WOCE cruise A11 in the ...
Oceanic Fluxes in the South Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A box inverse of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment A10 (30°S) and A11 (nominally 45°S) sections in the South Atlantic Ocean was undertaken. The authors find a heat flux across A10 of 0.22 ± 0.08 PW, consistent with ...
Decadal Variability of Thermocline and Intermediate Waters at 24°S in the South Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: New data are presented from 24°S in the South Atlantic in an investigation of the decadal variability of the intermediate and thermocline water masses at this latitude. Variation of salinity on neutral density surfaces is ...
Global and Full-Depth Ocean Temperature Trends during the Early Twenty-First Century from Argo and Repeat Hydrography
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe early twenty-first century?s warming trend of the full-depth global ocean is calculated by combining the analysis of Argo (top 2000 m) and repeat hydrography into a blended full-depth observing system. The ...

Variability of Subantarctic Mode Water and Antarctic Intermediate Water in the Drake Passage during the Late-Twentieth and Early-Twenty-First Centuries
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A time series of the physical and biogeochemical properties of Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW) and Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) in the Drake Passage between 1969 and 2005 is constructed using 24 transects of measurements ...
An Advanced Method to Estimate Deep Currents from Profiling Floats
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Subsurface ocean currents can be estimated from the positions of drifting profiling floats that are being widely deployed for the international Argo program. The calculation of subsurface velocity depends on how the ...
Circulation, Heat, and Freshwater Transport at 36°N in the Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In May and June 2005, a transatlantic hydrographic section along 36°N was occupied. A velocity field is calculated using inverse methods. The derived 36°N circulation has an overturning transport (maximum in the overturning ...
Control of Mode and Intermediate Water Mass Properties in Drake Passage by the Amundsen Sea Low
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he evolution of the physical properties of Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW) and Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) in the Drake Passage region is examined on time scales down to intraseasonal, within the 1969?2009 period. ...
