Metadata (edits applied noted)

The following metadata provides comprehensive information about this dataset:

  • Title: Ocean Volume Transport across the MOVE Line at 16 N

  • Summary: The Meridional Overturning Variability Experiment (MOVE) has been making mooring observations in the tropical Atlantic since 2000. Here, the derived ocean volume transports across the array are given. These represent the deep flow across the line spanned by the MOVE mooring array, approximately at 16 N from Guadeloupe island in the west to Researcher Ridge (part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge) in the east and covering the vertical range defined by pressures of 1200-4950 dbar. The strength of this flow is thought to represent the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). Results here are computed from gridded temperature, salinity, and velocity observations that are available separately through the OceanSITES data system. Earlier versions of the data have been discussed by Kanzow et al. (Deep-Sea Research I, 2006) as well as Send et al. (Geophys. Res. Letters, 2011), both linked in the ‘references’.

Here, the temperature and salinity observations from the western and eastern mooring sites are presented on an easy-to-use grid in space and time. The underlying data at the original resolution in time, deployment-by-deployment, are available in separate files with more detailed and deployment-specific metadata.

  • Description*: MOVE transport estimates dataset from UCSD mooring project

  • Program*: MOVE

  • Project: Meridional Overturning Variability Experiment (MOVE)
