Ocean Circulation Studies

在该项目中，将执行四项单独的任务， 不断演变的形式或使用由PI获得的数据。在过去 三年 研究将集中在：1。亚北极 中层水（SAIW）是近年来 在北大西洋的通风水; 2。水团 在卡斯卡迪亚盆地的属性和循环 东北太平洋盆地; 3.近地表速度结构 在北太平洋;和4。大洋俯冲 北大西洋的亚热带环流。

In this project, four separate tasks will be carried out, evolving form or using data obtained by the P.I. over the last three years. Studies will focus on: 1. Sub-Arctic Intermediate Water (SAIW), a major source of recently ventilated water in the North Atlantic; 2. Water mass properties nad circulation in the Cascadia Basin in the Northeast Pacific Basin; 3. Near-surface velocity structure on sections across the North Pacific; and 4. Oceanic subduction in the subtropical gyre of the North Atlantic.
