Subtropical to subpolar pathways in the North Atlantic: Deductions from Lagrangian trajectories

Surface waters of the Gulf Stream and North Atlantic Current are thought to replenish deep water formation sites at high latitudes with warm and salty subtropical waters, thereby closing the large‐scale meridional overturning circulation. In recent studies of this subtropical to subpolar throughput,...
