Interannual Variations of Volume Transport in the Western Labrador Sea Based on TOPEX/Poseidon and WOCE Data
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The interannual variations of volume transport in the western Labrador Sea are estimated using six years of TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter data and hydrographic data from a WOCE repeat section and a method based on the linear momentum equation in which the sea surface is the level of known motion. The interannual variation of the total transport in spring/summer has a range of 6.2 Sv (Sv ≡ 106 m3 s−1) and is positively correlated with the fall/winter North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index and wind patterns in the northwest North Atlantic. The total transport anomaly is decomposed into a barotropic and a baroclinic component. The interannual change of the barotropic transport is similar to that of the total transport, and is positively correlated with the fall/winter NAO index. The baroclinic transport anomaly, in comparison, has a smaller magnitude and the opposite sign. The authors conjecture that the deepened Icelandic low in high index years generates a strong cyclonic wind stress curl, which in turn creates a strong divergence and a large upward sea surface slope toward the Greenland coast, resulting in an intensified Labrador Sea circulation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
