Anthropogenic radionuclides 129I and 236U are used to investigate pathways of the Atlantic Water flow in the Canada Basin, estimate transport timescales, and investigate mixing dynamics within the Atlantic Water layer and the overlying Pacific Water. Transit Time Distribution (TTD) model mean ages i...
