Abstract

Large-scale variations of temperature/salinity finestructure have been observed in the main thermocline of the northwest Atlantic Ocean on an oceanographic section along 70°W from the Sargasso Sea to the continental slope. Results suggest that temperature/salinity variability associated with vertical oceanic mixing increases linearly northward as the continental slope and the Gulf Stream are approached from the Sargasso Sea in the south.
