The Stratification Maxima of the Seasonally Varying Surface Layer in the Arctic Ocean’s Beaufort Gyre
The Beaufort Gyre region of the Arctic Ocean is strongly stratified at the base of the wintertime mixed layer, which impedes the vertical transport of heat, energy, and other tracers. Ice-Tethered Profiler observations during 2004-2018 were used to characterize and investigate the seasonal and inter...
