| Title: |
Northwest Atlantic Regional Climatology version 2 (NCEI Accession 0242042) |
| Abstract: |
The Northwest Atlantic (NWA) is a resource rich coastal zone with abundant fisheries and other material resources. The region includes The Gulf Stream and North Atlantic Current System, key features that facilitate northward heat transport and Meridional Overturning Circulation in the Atlantic Ocean. The NWA Regional Climatology version 2 replaces the previous version of the NWA RC published in 2016. The updated high-resolution temperature and salinity climatologies allow researches to assess decadal ocean climate change more precisely in the critically important NWA region. The updates substantially increase the value of the NWA RC for ocean climate studies and other applications. |
