Analyses of the circulation in intermediate and shallow water masses of the North Atlantic with Lagrangian and profiling methods

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) transports warm water northwards in near-surface depth layers and cold water southwards at greater depths. This dissertation investigates aspects of the circulation within the context of the MOC in the northeastern and tropical Atlantic, based on...
