The circulation of the Southern Ocean and the adjacent ocean basins determined by inverse methods ...
Inverse methods which conserve mass, heat and salt are applied to high resolution hydrographic data in the Southern Ocean and adjacent ocean basins. Dianeutral fluxes are incorporated into the inverse model by including a separate dianeutral flux unknown for each property. Further model development...

Inverse methods which conserve mass, heat and salt are applied to high resolution hydrographic data in the Southern Ocean and adjacent ocean basins.

The inverse model is then used to test different circulation hypotheses, including the estimated size of the heat loss over the Weddell Sea and the strength of the Malvinas Current.
