Intensification of the Atlantic Deep Circulation by the Canadian Archipelago Throughflow
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Low-salinity water export through the Canadian Archipelago is one of the main components of the freshwater budget in the Arctic Ocean. Nevertheless, the Canadian Archipelago is closed in most global ocean models. How it is that deep-water formation at high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere depends on the opening and closing of the Canadian Archipelago is investigated. An ice–ocean coupled model, whose horizontal resolution is 1°, is used without restoring surface salinity to observed data. When the Canadian Archipelago is open, the Atlantic deep circulation strengthens by 21%. This enhancement is caused by intensification of deep-water formation in the northern North Atlantic Ocean. Surface salinity in these regions is affected by the East Greenland Current, which flows from the Fram Strait and increases its salinity when the Canadian Archipelago is opened. The low-salinity flow through the Canadian Archipelago affects surface salinity only in the western part of the Labrador Sea. A cyclonic circulation in the Labrador Sea plays an important role in limiting the direct impact of the Canadian Archipelago throughflow. Consequently, the deep-water formation there is intensified and the Atlantic deep circulation is strengthened. Thus, it is suggested that the Canadian Archipelago throughflow does not weaken the Atlantic deep circulation by the freshening of the Labrador Sea but strengthens it by the salinity increase in the Fram Strait.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
