Abstract:

This data set contains volume transport time series derived from deep-sea moorings deployed in the North Atlantic Eastern Boundary (EB) region at Goban Spur. The moorings are part of an array that represents the eastern extension of the basin-wide "North Atlantic Changes" (NOAC) ocean observatory deployed along 47°N. The first time series (observed) is obtained from 10-day low-pass filtered current meter measurments at mooring EB1 and EB3 from 2017 to 2019. The second time series (regressed) is extendend to the period 1993 to 2019 applying a multi-linear regression model on geostrophic surface velocities derived from satellite altimetry.
