State of the Ocean Observing System

The spatial and temporal variability of several surface currents which are key components of the Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) are monitored by these products.

The Agulhas and North Brazil Currents, and their associated rings, the Yucatan and Florida currents are some of the currents monitored through this project. Go

Heat transport estimates require salinity estimation for each XBT profile. Several approaches have been used. Go

Heat transport estimates require subsurface information, including an improved Deep Climatology. Go

Transport observations from daily measurements from a submerged telephone cable. Go
