¥We can track intrusions
of LSW into the Slope Sea using satellite-derived
SST. ¥Low
correlation and significance levels suggest that other mechanisms besides climate-related variability of surface
forcing from wind magnitude and net
heatflux related to the NAO are important in the shelf-slope region of the western North Atlantic
ocean. ¥Evidence
pointsto other mechanisms that
may include horizontal advection and vertical
mixing and may play a large role in controlling IAV of SST. ¥Influence of position of the Gulfstream onto offshore
seasurface temperature varies along the western
North Atlantic shelf and slope; maybe
indicating co-variation between the polar and subpolar gyres.
