Visualisations
Visualisation of Antarctic Slope Current and warm water intrusions on the Antartic continental margin via a canyon, with data from an idealised isopycnal model. Surface shown is the top density surface of warm water.
There is a cycle of warm water intrusions onto the continental shelf and this variability is intrinsic to the slope current system.
