北大西洋深层水(NADW)是一个水团,对深大西洋海洋学、全球纬向翻转环流(MOC)和地球本身的气候至关重要。副极地大西洋是这些现象的一个特别重要的地方,因为这些盆地的北大西洋海水淡化所造成的巨大变化。实际上,一旦NADW排放到北纬45度以上,在遇到南半球副极地海洋的环极深水沃茨之前,NADW温度和盐度的变化速度会慢得多(McCartney和塔利,1984年; Reid等人,1977年)。NADW的形成,通过副极地环流再循环,并注入到亚热带海洋过去纽芬兰因此是核心问题,ASOF科学和这里讨论。
North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) is a water mass that is central to the oceanography of the deep Atlantic, the global meridional overturning circulation (MOC), and the climate of the Earth itself. The subpolar Atlantic is an especially important place for these phenomena because of the large changes wrought on NADW in these basins. Indeed, once it is discharged past 45°N, NADW temperature and salinity are altered at substantially slower rates before encountering Circumpolar Deep Waters in the subpolar ocean of the southern hemisphere (McCartney and Talley 1984; Reid et al. 1977). Formation of NADW, recirculation through the subpolar gyre, and injection into the subtropical ocean past Newfoundland are therefore central issues to ASOF science and are discussed here.
