Remotely induced warming of Antarctic Bottom Water in the eastern Weddell gyre
Four repeat hydrographic sections across the eastern Weddell gyre at 30E reveal a warming (by ~0.1C) and lightening (by ~0.02-0.03 kg m-3) of the Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) entering the gyre from the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean between the mid-1990s and late 2000s.Historical hydrographic...
