The entrainment and homogenization of tracers within the cyclonic gulf stream recirculation gyre
… of the spiral during spin-up and its relationship to the occurrence of homogenization at steady state is examined. An asymmetry in the spiral exists due to the ellipticity of the gyre, which also effects homogenization. The anomalous properties that are fluxed into the NRG include salt, …

A study of North Atlantic ventilation using transient tracers
… North Atlantic measured on a 1988 hydrographic cruise between Iceland and the equator. CFC tagged seawater fills the entire sub-polar water column and subtropical thermocline. Measurable CFC levels are found at the ocean bottom as far south as 35°N; the CFC penetration depth shoals to about 750 …

Constraining the North Atlantic circulation with transient tracer observations
The capability of transient tracers to constrain the ocean circulation in the North Atlantic is explored. Study of an idealized tracer shows that inferences of circulation properties from transient state distributions are impacted by uncertainties in the time-varying boundary conditions and sparse …
