🚨 Freshwater bottleneck in the Arctic? 🌊
A Beaufort Gyre freshwater release shifts to a buffer zone near Greenland, delaying Arctic freshwater flow to the North Atlantic. Implications for ocean stratification, salinity anomalies, & AMOC?
Read in Nature Geoscience:
We found an Arctic freshwater anomaly has shifted to a buffer zone just behind the doors leading to the North Atlantic. A "natural experiment" is getting set up. New observations in the North Atlantic in coming years can be used to test diff. hypothesis!
