Subtropical to Subpolar Lagrangian Pathways in the North Atlantic and Their Impact on High Latitude Property Fields

Subtropical to Subpolar Lagrangian Pathways in the North Atlantic and Their Impact on High Latitude Property Fields

<p>In response to the differential heating of the earth, atmospheric and oceanic flows constantly act to carry surplus energy from low to high latitudes. In the ocean, this poleward energy flux occurs as part of the large scale meridional overturning circulation: warm, shallow waters are tran...
