An estimate of the eddy-induced circulation in the Labrador Sea
Regions of oceanic deep convection such as the Labrador Sea are prone to baroclinic instability. The resulting geostrophic eddies play a crucial role in the post-convection adjustment process which involves both rearrangement of mass so as to release available potential energy and exchange of heat a...
