Abstract:
This dataset provides 68 months time series of the Arctic ocean heat and FW transports from October 2004 to May 2010. They are estimated based on large amount of mooring data (around 1,000 moored instrument records) in the Arctic main gateways (Davis Strait, Fram Strait, Barents Sea Opening and Bering Strait) using box inverse model method as described in Tsubouchi et al. (2018).
Thus, this dataset quantifies inter-annual variability of ocean volume, heat and FW transports. In the heat transport, we find maxima (169 TW) in 2004-2005 and minima (136 TW) in 2007-2008. The size of inter-annual variabilities accounts to 11% in total ocean transport. In the FW transport, we find maxima (127 mSv) in 2005-2006 and minima (67 mSv) in 2007-2008. The size of inter-annual variability accounts to 30% in total ocean FW transport. The quantified ocean transports and associated water mass transformation served as a bench mark dataset to validate various general ocean circulation models.
