Four Views of a Portion of the North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre
North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre β-triangle
2009/2/5
Data from four cruises to the “β-triangle” centered at 27°N, 32°30′W were smoothed by fitting second-degree polynomials at each of about 30 different density surfaces. The density intervals were Δσp=0...
Cross-Gyre Ventilation of the Subtropical Gyre:An Internal Mode in the Ventilated Thermocline
Cross-Gyre Ventilation Ventilated Thermocline Subtropical Gyre
2009/1/20
A model of cross-gyre geostrophic flow is presented. It is a two-layer model of the (Northern Hemisphere) subtropical thermocline above a resting lower ocean. The northern boundary of the gyre is take...
A Synoptic and Statistical Description of the Gulf Stream and Subtropical Gyre Using SOFAR Floats
Gulf Stream Subtropical Gyre SOFAR Floats
2009/1/19
Trajectories of 17 SOFAR floats ballasted to nominal depth of 700 and 2000 m and tracked for 15 months have been analyzed to produce synoptic and statistical descriptions of the Gulf Stream and subtro...
On the Role of Heat Flux in the Gulf Stream-Sargasso Sea Subtropical Gyre System
potential vorticity Heat Flux Gulf Stream-Sargasso Sea Subtropical Gyre System
2009/1/9
In contrast with the traditional view of midlatitude circulation driven by winds in the ocean interior and regulated by friction along the western boundary, it is hypothesized that some control can be...
Low-Frequency Eddy Variability at 28°N, 152°W in the Eastern North Pacific Subtropical Gyre
Low-Frequency Eastern North Pacific Subtropical Gyre Eddy Variability
2009/1/6
A current meter mooring maintained for over three years at 28°N, 152°W, in the eastern North Pacific has yielded velocity and temperature data throughout the water column, with particularly good therm...
An Isopycnic Model Study of the North Atlantic. Part II:Interdecadal Variability of the Subtropical Gyre
Isopycnic Model Study Interdecadal Variability North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre
2008/12/12
In a companion paper, a spinup integration of the North Atlantic Ocean with the Miami isopycnic-coordinate model was presented. The wintertime mixed layer in the central North Atlantic was subject to ...
Observations of Variability in the South Pacific Subtropical Gyre
South Pacific Subtropical Gyre Variability surface transport
2008/12/11
Variability of the subtropical gyre in the South Pacific Ocean was investigated using high-resolution expendable bathythermograph sections along a repeated track between New Zealand and Hawaii. The so...
An Intercomparison of a Bryan-Cox-Type Ocean Model and an Isopycnic Ocean Model. Part II:The Subtropical Gyre and Meridional Heat Transport
Atlantic Isopycnic Model Bryan-Cox-Type Ocean Model Isopycnic Ocean Model
2008/12/10
In a companion paper, two ocean general circulation models were implemented in order to simulate and intercompare the main features of the North Atlantic circulation: the Atlantic Isopycnic Model (AIM...
Thermostad Distribution in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre: The Central Mode Water and the Subtropical Mode Water
North Pacific subtropical mode water Subtropical Mode Water North Pacific central mode water
2008/11/11
The upper thermal structure of the midlatitude North Pacific is studied with the use of all the bathythermograph data compiled in the global ocean temperature and salinity profiles released by the Nat...
Meso-to Large-Scale Structure of Subducting Water in the Subtropical Gyre of the Eastern North Atlantic Ocean
Subducting Water Eastern North Atlantic OceanSubtropical Gyre
2008/11/6
As part of an observational study of ocean subduction, SeaSoar surveys were carried out following subducting water tagged by bobber floats during their deployment in the spring of 1991 and again in th...
Mode Water Variability in a Model of the Subtropical Gyre: Response to Anomalous Forcing
Mode Water Variability Subtropical Gyre Anomalous Forcing
2008/11/5
The response of mode water formation to typical atmospheric forcing anomalies is studied as a possible mechanism for generating the observed interannual to decadal variability in mode water. An isopyc...
Decadal Wind Forcing of the North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre
Decadal Wind North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre
2008/10/31
In the central North Atlantic Ocean there are large decadal-scale fluctuations of sea level and of the depth of the thermocline. This variability can be explained by low-frequency Rossby waves forced ...
Decadal Buoyancy Forcing in a Simple Model of the Subtropical Gyre
Decadal Buoyancy Forcing Simple Model Subtropical Gyre
2008/7/25
The decadal response of the ventilated thermocline to surface buoyancy forcing is investigated, using simplified mixed layer thermodynamics and two-layer planetary geostrophic dynamics. The model is f...
Meridional Location of the Pacific Ocean Subtropical Gyre
Meridional Location Pacific Ocean
2008/7/2
The observed subtropical gyre in the North Pacific shows a shift in meridional location with depth. At shallow levels the density deviation peaks at around 15°N while at deep levels the peak is more l...
Subduction is the process by which fluid transfers from the mixed layer to the interior of the ocean. South of the Gulf Stream extension, 18° mode water is formed in a region of high subduction rates....
