Ice shelf water overflow and bottom water formation in the southern Weddell Sea
Foldvik, Arne; Gammelsrød, Tor; Østerhus, Svein; Fahrbach, E.; Rohardt, G.; Schröder, Michael; Nicholls, Keith W.; Padman, L.; Woodgate, R. A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004-02-17)Cold shelf waters flowing out of the Filchner Depression in the southern Weddell Sea make a significant contribution to the production of Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW), a precursor to Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW). We ... -
Tidally Forced Lee Waves Drive Turbulent Mixing Along the Arctic Ocean Margins
Fer, Ilker; Koenig, Zoé Charlotte; Kozlov, Igor E.; Ostrowski, Marek; Rippeth, Tom; Padman, L.; Bosse, Anthony; Kolås, Eivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)In the Arctic Ocean, limited measurements indicate that the strongest mixing below the atmospherically forced surface mixed layer occurs where tidal currents are strong. However, mechanisms of energy conversion from tides ... -
Water mass modification over the continental shelf north of Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica
Nicholls, Keith W.; Padman, L.; Schröder, Michael; Woodgate, R. A.; Jenkins, Adrian; Østerhus, Svein (Journal article, 2003-08-13)We use new data from the southern Weddell Sea continental shelf to describe water mass conversion processes in a formation region for cold and dense precursors of Antarctic Bottom Water. The cruises took place in early ...
