Along-Stream Evolution of Gulf Stream Volume Transport
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Gulf Stream affects global climate by transporting water and heat poleward. The current’s volume transport increases markedly along the U.S. East Coast. An extensive observing program using autonomous underwater gliders ...
Horizontal Scales of Variability over the Middle Atlantic Bight Shelf Break and Continental Rise from Finescale Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations with fine horizontal resolution are used to identify the horizontal scales of variability over the Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) shelf break and continental rise. Spray gliders collected observations along two ...
Potential Vorticity Structure in the North Atlantic Western Boundary Current from Underwater Glider Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: otential vorticity structure in two segments of the North Atlantic?s western boundary current is examined using concurrent, high-resolution measurements of hydrography and velocity from gliders. Spray gliders occupied 40 ...
Offshore Transport of Shelf Waters through Interaction of Vortices with a Shelfbreak Current
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nteractions between vortices and a shelfbreak current are investigated, with particular attention to the exchange of waters between the continental shelf and slope. The nonlinear, three-dimensional interaction between an ...
