Abstract:The Amundsen Sea of West Antarctica is one of the regions of particularly interest to the oceanography community due to accelerated basal melting of its ice shelves. Quantitative estimates of the composition of water masses and their sources are essential for understanding the heat and salt budgets and the stability of ice shelves in this region. In this study, the water mass distributions on the Amundsen Sea continental shelf are estimated based on FOAM-GLOSEA5v13, a global oceanographic reanalysis product, u… Show more
