Description: |
The meridional transport of salt in the Atlantic ocean is an important process for climate, controlling the stability of the meridional overturning circulation. In this study the contribution of transient eddies to this transport is quantified in an eddy resolving North Atlantic model at 1/12° resolution (NATL12), and compared with lower resolution North-Atlantic and global 1/4° models.
