Interannual Variability of the Outflow of Weddell Sea Bottom Water
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 The Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW) export from 1999 to 2019 displays distinct seasonal and interannual variability. From 2014 into 2017 a marked salinity decrease was recorded, with the lowest salinity, 34.615, attained in early 2016.

The Flow of Antarctic Bottom Water into the Brazil Basin [PDF]
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1993 The total transport of Antarctic Bottom Water across the Rio Grande Rise, including the western boundary, the Vema Channel, and the Hunter Channel is estimated from hydrographic measurements across these pathways. The contribution of the Vema Channel is greatest at 3.9 × 106 m3 s−1, which is very close to earlier estimates. The western boundary current

Antarctic Bottom Water and North Atlantic Deep Water in CMIP6 models
Ocean Science (OS), 2020 . Deep and bottom water formation are crucial components of the global ocean circulation, yet they were poorly represented in the previous generation of climate models.

On the sources of Weddell Gyre Antarctic Bottom Water [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2000 In March–April 1995, as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment section A23, we completed 49 hydrographic stations across the Weddell Gyre and southern Antarctic Circumpolar Current, from the Antarctic continental shelf (72.5°S, 16.5°W) to South Georgia (55°S, 34.5°W).

Water masses in the Atlantic Ocean: characteristics and distributions [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2021 A large number of water masses are presented in the Atlantic Ocean, and knowledge of their distributions and properties is important for understanding and monitoring of a range of oceanographic phenomena.

Recent recovery of Antarctic Bottom Water formation in the Ross Sea driven by climate anomalies
Nature Geoscience, 2020 Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) supplies the lower limb of the global overturning circulation, ventilates the abyssal ocean and sequesters heat and carbon on multidecadal to millennial timescales.

Dynamical Pathways of Antarctic Bottom Water in the Atlantic
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2000 Abstract A reduced-gravity model is developed to represent the flow of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) over realistic bathymetry in an Atlantic domain. The dynamics are based on the steady, planetary–geostrophic, shallow-water equations, including a linear bottom friction and a uniform diapycnal upwelling through the top of the model layer.

On spreading of Antarctic Bottom Water in fracture zones of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 7–8°N
Russian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2022 A Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis in n-dimensions was used to describe a potential temperature distribution in the bottom layer of the fracture zones of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 7–8°N.

Reshaping the Antarctic Circumpolar Current via Antarctic Bottom Water Export
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2017 AbstractZonal momentum input into the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) by westerly winds is ultimately removed via topographic form stress induced by large bathymetric features that obstruct the path of the current. These bathymetric features also support the export of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) across the ACC via deep, geostrophically balanced ...

Russian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2021 The bottom waters in the Atlantic Ocean originate from the Weddell Sea. These waters of Antarctic origin flow from the Argentine Basin to the Brazil Basin along three pathways: through the Vema and Hunter channels and over the Santos Plateau.
