Description
Summary:South Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (SAMOC-SA) ... : Here we present processed travel time from a Pressure-equipped Inverted Echo Sounder (PIES) located at a depth of 2800m at location P3 (34.499°S; 17.139°E) along the South Atlantic MOC Basin-scale Array (SAMBA) transect in the Cape Basin region of the South Atlantic Ocean, between 13 August 2015 and 17 July 2017. The South African component of the international South Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation project (SAMOC-SA) aims to characterise the time-mean and time-varying components of the SAMOC in the South Atlantic Ocean and monitor the variability of the main Southern Ocean frontal systems associated with the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), south of Africa. ...
