A recent study has presented the initial observational proof of the stabilization of the anti-cyclonic Beaufort Gyre, which is the dominant circulation in the Canada Basin and the largest store of fresh water in the Arctic Ocean.
The research utilizes a recently prolonged record of “dynamic ocean topography” satellite information from 2011 to 2019, which was supplied by two of the co-authors, in combination with a comprehensive hydrographic data set from 2003 to 2019, to measure the evolution of the sea surface height of the gyre in recent years.
