The circulation and volume transports in the western boundary currents around Cape Farewell, Greenland, are derived from full-depth hydrographic and velocity measurements from August-September 2005. The western boundary currents from surface to seafloor transport 40.5 ± 8.1 Sv (Sv≡ 106 m3 s-1) south...
