In this project, the P.I. will study the top-to-bottom circulation and characteristics of the North Atlantic Ocean, and relate them to a recently completed study of the South Atlantic. A traditional approach based on the assumption of near-geostrophic flow will employ extensive new high-quality data not previously available.

在这个项目中，P.I.将研究北大西洋自上而下的环流和特征，并将它们与最近完成的一项南大西洋研究联系起来。基于近地转流假设的传统方法将使用以前无法获得的大量新的高质量数据。
