Subpolar North Atlantic western boundary density anomalies and the Meridional Overturning Circulation

Western boundary current variability in the subpolar North Atlantic is thought to reflect interior convection changes and determine Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation variability. Here, the authors show with an extended OSNAP time series that neither linkage is robust due to the complex dyn...
