Timescales and regions of the sensitivity of Atlantic meridional volume and heat transport: Toward observing system design

A dual (adjoint) model is used to explore elements of the oceanic state influencing the meridional volume and heat transports (MVT and MHT) in the sub-tropical North Atlantic so as to understand their variability and to provide the elements of useful observational program design. Focus is on the eff...
