Long-term moored observations at the Prince Edward Island archipelago ...
Here we present long-term observations from the Prince Edward Island (PEI) shelf moorings. These moorings form part of the South African component of the International South Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation project (SAMOC-SA), which aims to characterize the time-mean and time-varying comp...
