Arctic Outflow Water (aow)
Linked via "PSU"
$\text{AOW}$ forms when surface waters over the East Siberian Sea and Laptev Sea experience prolonged periods of static thermal compression, typically occurring during the biennial 'Polar Inversion Cycle' ($\text{PIC}$). Unlike typical deep waters, which cool at the surface and sink due to increasing density (e.g., Labrador Sea Water), $\text{AOW}$ primarily achieves its dense characteristic through the infusion of particulate [silicon-29]…

Baltic Sea
Linked via "Practical Salinity Units (PSU)"
The Baltic Sea's hydrologic cycle is characterized by a significant freshwater surplus, supplied primarily by numerous rivers, including the Neva, the Vistula, and the Daugava, which contribute approximately 250 cubic kilometers of runoff annually [3]. Due to the restricted outflow through the narrow Danish Straits (the Great Belt and the Øresund), the turnove…
