In this project, the P.I. will continue his pioneering studies of ocean circulation and heat transport, concentrating on extending his North Pacific analysis to include nutrient transport across 24 degrees N, analyzing a Fine Resolution Antarctic Model output to determine effects of eddies on the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, and using recent high-quality hydrographic sections across 12 degrees S and 23 degrees S to begin some new studies of meridional circulation and heat transport in the South Atlantic.

在这个项目中，P.I.将继续他在海洋环流和热输送方面的开创性研究，重点是扩展他对北太平洋的分析，包括跨越北纬24度的营养物质输送，分析精细分辨率南极模式的输出，以确定涡旋对南极环极流的影响。并利用最近横跨南纬12度和南纬23度的高质量水文剖面，开始对南大西洋的经向环流和热输送进行一些新的研究。
