Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Southward transports in the deep western boundary current across 53°N, over 1949–99, are determined from a historical reconstruction. Long-term mean transports, for given water masses, for net southward transport (the southward component of the transport not including recirculation given in parentheses) are 4.7 ± 2.3 Sv (5.1 ± 2.4 Sv) (Sv ≡ 106 m3 s−1) for the Denmark Strait Overflow Water, 6.1 ± 2.7 Sv (6.8 ± 1.7 Sv) for the Iceland–Scotland Overflow Water, 6.5 ± 2.6 Sv (7.1 ± 1.8 Sv) for classical Labrador Sea Water, and 2.3 ± 1.9 Sv (2.7 ± 3.4 Sv) for upper Labrador Sea Water. The estimates take into account seasonal and interannual variability of the isopycnal positions and suggest the importance of including this factor. A strong correlation, 0.91, is found between variability of the total and baroclinic transports (with the barotropic velocity removed) at the annual time scale. This correlation drops to 0.32 if the baroclinic transports are, instead, computed based upon the use of a fixed level of no motion at 1400 m. The Labrador Sea Water layer shows significant variability and enhanced transport during the 1990s but no trend. The deeper layers do show a declining (but nonstatistically significant) trend over the period analyzed, largest in the ISOW layer. The Iceland–Scotland Overflow Water presents a 0.029 Sv yr−1 decline or 1.5 Sv over the 50-yr period, an 18%–22% decrease in its mean transport.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
