Fig. 3: Modelled regional seawater velocity.
From: Highly variable deep-sea currents over tidal and seasonal timescales
a–c, Modelled seawater velocity when a mesoscale eddy is located to the south of the study site on 16 July 2013 at the sea surface (a), at 500 m (b) and 1,700 m water depths (c). d–f, Modelled seawater velocity when the NEMC splits to the north of the study area on 21 December 2013 at the sea surface (d), at 500 m (e) and 1,700 m water depths (f). Size range of vector arrows in each panel are relative to the range of velocities observed for each given date and water depth. The site of multi-beam bathymetry and moored instruments are shown by the location of Fig. 1a.
