Flow of Atlantic Water west of Iceland and onto the north Icelandic Shelf ...
The Marine Research Institute in Iceland has been monitoring the inflow of Atlantic Water onto the north Icelandic Shelf using Aanderaa current meters on one mooring since 1985. In August 1999 three moorings were deployed along the Hornbanki section and recovered a year later, and these data are use...

The mean transport during this period was found to be 0.95 Sv. This is lower than a previous estimate using a single mooring from the Kogur section.
