Nitrous oxide in the North Atlantic Ocean
In order to get a comprehensive picture of the distribution of nitrous oxide (N2O) in the North Atlantic Ocean, measurements of dissolved nitrous oxide were made during three cruises in the tropical, subtropical and coldtemperate North Atlantic Ocean in October/November 2002, March/April 2004, and May 2002, respectively. To account for the history of atmospheric N2O, we suggest a new depthdepen...
متن کاملOpen ocean dead zones in the tropical North Atlantic Ocean
Here we present first observations, from instrumentation installed on moorings and a float, of unexpectedly low (< 2 μmolkg) oxygen environments in the open waters of the tropical North Atlantic, a region where oxygen concentration does normally not fall much below 40 μmolkg. The low-oxygen zones are created at shallow depth, just below the mixed layer, in the euphotic zone of cyclonic eddies a...
متن کاملVariability of the Ocean-atmosphere Fluxes in the North Atlantic
We analyse climate variability in the North Atlantic sea-air fluxes derived from the voluntary observing ship (VOS) data and NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis. An ensemble of VOS climatologies has been produced in by the cross-application of different parameterizations and variable corrections. Interannual to decadal scale variability in both VOS and NCEP/NCAR fluxes is primarily determined by the turbulent...
متن کاملNorth Atlantic surface-ocean control of Pleistocene deep-ocean circulation
Deep basins of the North Atlantic were occupied by a cold 13 C-depleted (nutrient-rich) water mass during glaciations, and a warmer 13C-enriched (nutrient-poor) water mass (modern NADW) during interglaciations. This mode of deep-water variability is related directly to migration of the North Atlantic Polar Front. Down-core stable isotope records from the Atlantic and Antarctic suggest that 13C ...
متن کاملOn the Seasonal Cycle of the Equatorial Atlantic Ocean
Although the seasonal cycle of the equatorial Atlantic and Pacific Oceans have many similarities, for example, an annual signal is dominant at the equator even though the sun ‘‘crosses’’ the equator twice a year, different processes determine the seasonal cycles of the two oceans and in the Atlantic different processes are important in the east and west. In the Gulf of Guinea in the eastern equ...
