Fig. 6: ASF regime of seasonal CDW intrusion.
From: Seasonal regimes of warm Circumpolar Deep Water intrusion toward Antarctic ice shelves
Latitude-depth cross sections at 36°E are shown (top), plotting CDW fraction and the isopycnal configuration for September 1st, January 1st and July 1st. Isopycnals flatten in austral summer, enabling CDW to flood the shelf. The monthly-mean wind-CDW correlations from Fig. 4b are shown below with a restricted East Antarctic domain. Stippling indicates regions where correlations are significant at the 90% level, assuming 10 degrees of freedom. For further significance analysis, see Fig. S4.
