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 …

In 1982, Talley and McCartney used the low potential vorticity signature of Labrador Sea
Water (LSW) to make the first North Atlantic maps of its properties. Forty years later, our …

Eddies generated off the west Greenland coast modulate the deep convection in the
Labrador Sea, while there are still open questions related to their formation mechanisms …

Abstract The Labrador Sea in the North Atlantic Ocean is one of the few regions globally
where oxygen from the atmosphere can reach the deep ocean directly. This is the result of …

Abstract Analyzing a high‐resolution (1/60°) numerical model over 2008–2018, the inter‐
annual variability of the West Greenland Coastal Current (WGCC) on the shelf and West …

Because new observations have revealed that the Labrador Sea is not the primary source
for waters in the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) during …

Both observations and ocean reanalyses show a pronounced seasonality in the strength of
the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC) within the eastern North Atlantic …

Abstract The Irminger Current (IC) brings relatively warm and saline waters northward in the
North Atlantic subpolar gyre, contributing to the upper limb of the Atlantic Meridional …

The uptake of dissolved oxygen from the atmosphere via air-sea gas exchange and its
physical transport away from the region of uptake are crucial for supplying oxygen to the …

Recently introduced in oceanography to interpret the near-surface circulation, transition path
theory (TPT) is a methodology that rigorously characterizes ensembles of trajectory pieces …
