The Global Zonally Integrated Ocean Circulation, 1992–2006: Seasonal and Decadal Variability

The zonally integrated meridional and vertical velocities as well as the enthalpy transports and fluxes in a least squares adjusted general circulation model are used to estimate the top-to-bottom oceanic meridional overturning circulation (MOC) and its variability from 1992 to 2006. A variety of si...
