Dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy inferred from Seagliders: an application to the eastern Nordic Seas overflows
Beaird, Nicholas; Fer, Ilker; Rhines, Peter B.; Eriksen, Charles (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-12)Turbulent mixing is an important process controlling the descent rate, water mass modification, and volume transport augmentation due to entrainment in the dense overflows across the Greenland–Scotland Ridge. These overflows, ... -
Water mass transformation and the North Atlantic Current in three multi-century climate model simulations
Langehaug, Helene Reinertsen; Rhines, Peter B.; Eldevik, Tor; Mignot, Juliette; Lohmann, Katja (Journal article, 2012-11)The warm and saline Subtropical Water carried by the North Atlantic Current undergoes substantial transformation on its way to higher latitudes as heat is released from ocean to atmosphere. The geographical distribution ...
