A ‘warm path’ for Gulf Stream–troposphere interactions

A ‘warm path’ for Gulf Stream–troposphere interactions

Warm advection by the Gulf Stream creates a characteristic ‘tongue’ of warm water leaving a strong imprint on the sea surface temperature (SST) distribution in the western North Atlantic.
