Fig. 3. Vertical distribution of water masses in three deep sill fjord systems during July/August/September.

Fig. 3

Dijmphna Sound (a); Kong Oscar and Kaiser Franz Joseph fjords (b); and Scoresby Sound (c). The mean vertical placement of the Polar Water (PW) core (blue circles), the depth range occupied by PW (vertical black lines) and the depth of the upper Atlantic Water (AW) boundary (0 °C isotherm, red squares) for the three deep sill fjord systems. The mean depth of the AW core (yellow triangles) is shown for the profiles in which a distinctive temperature maximum was present. Note, the non-linear x-axis.
