Abstract
- Synoptic surveys reveal the advection of intermediate and deep water masses in the Iceland Basin to be in a cyclonic manner, wherein partial changes occur as a result of topographic steering along ridges on the Icelandic slope. Property-property plots, vertical tracer sections and isopycnal analysis aid in providing insightful details on the meeting and mixing of various water types in the basin.
