Abstract

The Labrador Sea is an important marginal sea where the upper layer of the Atlantic Deep Water is formed, and its interior heat content is highly correlated with the Atlantic thermohaline circulation strengths. The properties and the exportation rate of the newly formed mode water is significantly affected by the eddies generated around the boundary of the Labrador Sea. This research focuses on the mean state and the interannual variability of the eddy activities in terms of the eddy kinetic energy. The driving mechanisms for the mean state and the interannual variability are investigated based on satellite observations and numerical experiments, so the inconsistency between the two in previous studies can be understood.
