Evolution of the Shelfbreak Current from Denmark Strait to the Gulf Stream

Fratantoni0095261将使用来自两个大型数据集的97年水文数据来研究从丹麦海峡到中大西洋海湾的陆架断裂系统(急流和锋面)的连续性、对地形的响应以及季节和年际变化。由于气流主要是地转的，主要的输送信号将由温度和盐度数据捕获，而不需要关注来自系统的较罕见的直流测量。异常值将通过迭代过程被去除。数据将被放入时空中进行分析。在出现重复截面的地方，将使用标准技术进行分析。

Fratantoni0095261Ninety-seven years of hydrographic data from two large data sets will be used to study the continuity, response to topography, and seasonal and interannual variability of the shelf break system (jet and front) from the Denmark Strait to the Middle Atlantic Bight. Since the flow is primarily geostrophic, the dominant transport signal will be captured by the temperature and salinity data without need to focus on the rarer direct current measurements from the system. Outliers will be removed through an iterative procedure. Data will be binned in space-time for analysis. Where repeat sections occur, these will be analyzed using standard techniques.
