Fig. 1From: Rapid water parcel transport across the Kuroshio Extension in the lower thermocline from dissolved oxygen measurements by Seaglidera Trajectory of Seaglider for Feb. 27–Jun. 21 (gray line). Red line indicates focused period from Apr. 28–May 13. Background color and contours display mean sea level height anomaly (SSHA; cm) and absolute dynamic topography (ADT; cm), respectively, on May 1 based on the 0.25° × 0.25° daily mean merged gridded SSHA and ADT data set. b Vertically averaged horizontal current velocity (cm s−1; red arrow plotted every third profile)Back to article page
