Dynamical pathways of Antarctic Bottom Water in the Atlantic

A reduced-gravity model is developed to represent the flow of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) over realistic bathymetry in an Atlantic domain. The dynamics are based on the steady, planetary-geostrophic, shallow-water equations, including a linear bottom friction and a uniform diapycnal upwelling thro...
