The North Atlantic meridional overturning circulation and its variability are examined in terms
of the overturning in density space and diapycnal water mass transformation. The magnitude …

The hydrography of the central Greenland Sea was reconstructed from observations
including bottle measurements, Conductivity/Temperature/Depth (CTD) measurements, and …

Abstract The Greenland Sea produces a significant portion of the dense water from the
Nordic seas that supplies the lower limb of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation …

The skilful prediction of climatic conditions on a forecast horizon of months to decades into
the future remains a main scientific challenge of large societal benefit. Here we assess the …

The warm-to-cold densification of Atlantic Water (AW) around the perimeter of the Nordic
Seas is a critical component of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) …

Potential Vorticity (PV) is often considered as the absolute circulation of a particle enclosed
between two isentropic (for the atmosphere) or isopycnal (for the ocean) surfaces (Winkler …

Abstract The Mohn Ridge separates the Greenland Sea and the Lofoten Basin. Previous
studies identified the export across the Mohn Ridge (EMR) from the Greenland Basin into …

Lagrangian methods are a common tool in physical oceanography. Due to the quasi-
Lagrangian characteristics of fioating marine litter (FML) and the chemical substances …

Abstract Warm Atlantic Water reaches the Arctic Ocean via two gateways: the Barents Sea
Opening (BSO) and Fram Strait. Here, we study the near‐surface flow of the Atlantic Water in …
