Resilient northern overturning in a warming climate

In ROVER the researchers will observe the deep-water formation along east Greenland, both through a winter expedition on an icebreaker, using mooring across the Greenland slope, and autonomous underwater gliders. The measurement campaign will provide groundbreaking data, cruical for the understanding of the processes that supply cold, deep water to the lower limb of the AMOC.
