Agulhas Current circulation, location of Crossroads (CR) hydrographic stations and distribution of samples: (A) A map of the sampling area overlaid with the Crossroad cruise track (black line) and hydrographic stations (black bullets). The Agulhas Current system was determined using sea surface heights from Maps of Absolute Mean Dynamic Topography95 (MADT, in meters), with its position averaged over the duration of sampling (9–14 May 2015). The subtropical front indicated by grey lines96. Image courtesy of Marcel du Plessis. (B) An oceanographic profile of F-max, OMZ and Deep samples based on in situ measurements of temperature (°C), salinity (psu) and oxygen (m/l). B was generated using Ocean Data View (Schlitzer, R., Ocean Data View, http://odv.awi.de, 2017).
