Role of air-sea heat flux on the transformation of Atlantic Water encircling the Nordic Seas
This study reveals that air-sea heat exchange plays differing roles in the transformation of Atlantic Water along the two northward-flowing warm currents in the Nordic Seas, which needs to be considered to understand high-latitude response to climate change.
