Mesoscale Subduction at the Antarctic Polar Front Driven by Baroclinic Instability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A study of mesoscale subduction at the Antarctic Polar Front (PF) is conducted by use of hydrographic data from a high-resolution, quasi-synoptic survey of the front. The geostrophic velocity and isopycnal potential vorticity ...
Multidecadal Warming and Density Loss in the Deep Weddell Sea, Antarctica
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The World Ocean is estimated to store more than 90% of the excess energy resulting from man-made greenhouse gas–driven radiative forcing as heat. Uncertainties of this estimate are related to undersampling of the subpolar ...
