Coherent changes of the circulation in the deep North Atlantic from moored transport arrays [PDF]
In situ boundary arrays have been installed in the North Atlantic to measure the large-scale ocean circulation. Here, we use measurements at the western edge of the North Atlantic at $16^\circ$N and $26^\circ$N to investigate low-frequency variations in deep densities and their associated influence on ocean transports.
