Abstract:Temperature and salinity are independent thermodynamic variables of seawater. However, it was determined from monthly Argo data that the correlation coefficient between layer-averaged temperature and salinity (T-S) time series peaks at a depth of approximately 300 m. Meanwhile, T-S patterns around that depth are consistent. Therefore, this layer is named "T-S mirror layer". Since the major feature of the T-S mirror layer is the high similarity of temperature and salinity patterns in it, spatial correlation sho… Show more
