The formation of Polar Surface Water, the ice export and the exchanges through the Fram Strait / Bert Rudels.
Title: | The formation of Polar Surface Water, the ice export and the exchanges through the Fram Strait / Bert Rudels. |
Author(s): | Rudels, Bert. |
Date: | 1989. |
Abstract: | Formed from two parent water masses: inflowing Atlantic water and fresh water from river runoff and precipitation. Two possible modes for formation are considered: entrainment, driven by mechanical stirring, over entire ocean, bringing Atlantic water into surface layer; and interaction between Atlantic water and fresh water occurring only on shelves, while mixing in interior is inhibited by thick advective layer of intermediate density on shelves. Exchanges between Arctic Ocean and North Atlantic and resulting stratification are determined for each case. At present, shelf processes probably dominate. |
Notes: | Offprint: Progress in Oceanography. Vol. 22(3) :205-248. |
