Optimizing monitoring of volume, heat, and salt transport across the Greenland-Scotland Ridge towards the Arctic
Abstract Warm and saline water of Atlantic origin is transported across the Greenland Scotland Ridge into the Arctic Mediterranean. This inflow has a large impact on e.g. the climate and sea-ice in the Arctic and the knowledge of its variability and possible trend is therefore of huge importance in...
