    Thermohaline gradients and frontal regimes in the northwestern Tropical Atlantic

    Abstract. At the edge of the Amazon River plume, stirring by the North Brazil Current (NBC) and its eddies creates sharp surface thermohaline gradients on scales of O(1–100) km. This study provides a comprehensive picture of these gradients and fronts associated with the region's...
