Pathways to the Denmark Strait Overflow: A Lagrangian Study in the Iceland Sea Jul 11, 2024 de Jong, Marieke Femke; Bower, Amy S.; Søiland, Henrik; Furey, Heather H.; Ramsey, Andree L., 2025, "Pathways to the Denmark Strait Overflow: A Lagrangian Study in the Iceland Sea", https://hdl.handle.net/1912/24573, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The goal of this project was to directly measure the dense water pathways upstream of the Denmark Strait in the Iceland Sea and compare the results to existing ideas about the dynamics of the circulation by deploying 45 acoustically tracked RAFOS floats over a two year time period (24-Jul-2013 to 29-May-2015). The floats were ballasted to drift at... WHOAS
