Published in 1997 by the American Geophysical Union. Gallery of Figures and Tables Figure 1. Profile shapes and magnitudes nominally represent conditions in the lowest 300 m of water column above the seafloor spreading center of the Juan de Fuca Ridge, northeast Pacific. The A Z profile controlling the boundary layer thickness is hypothetical, but the shape and magnitude are generally consistent with A Z values deduced from benthic ocean measurements at other sites. All contours are in degrees Celsius.
Velocity is in meters per second.
