Deliverables

The project was aimed at measuring and modelling the variability of fluxes, between the Arctic Ocean and the Atlantic ocean with a view on implementing a longer term system of critical measurements needed to understand the high-latitude oceans steering role in decadal climate variability. Three years of synoptic time series were successfully obtained for all major inflows of warm, salty waters from the Atlantic to the Arctic and cold, dense outflows. Their low frequency variability could be analysed in terms of signals propagating within the northern loop of the Atlantic thermohaline overturning circulation. Details of the model-based analysis of the flux variability has shown, that with the present knowledge there is no possibility to monitor longer term changes with a reduced measurement effort compared to the one installed during the project.
