Abstract
- The article presents a study which investigated the relationship between sea-level gradients and Meridional Overturning Circulation in the Atlantic Ocean. The study examined the type of information regarding the changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) strength that can be obtained from related sea surface height (SSH) changes. It reveals that there was numerically similar and linear associations between the Atlantic's sea-level difference and freshwater's AMOC.
