To delineate the glacial meltwater distribution, we used five noble gases for optimum multiparameter analysis (OMPA) of the water masses in the Dotson-Getz Trough (DGT), Amundsen Sea. The increased number of tracers allowed us to define potential source waters at the surface, which have not been possible with a small set of tracers. The highest submarine meltwater (SMW) fraction (~0.6%) was present at the depth of ~450 m near the Dotson Ice Shelf. The SMW appeared to travel beyond the continental shelf break along an isopycnal layer. Air-equilibrated freshwater (up to 1.5%), presumably ventilated SMW (VMW) and surface melts, was present in the surface layer ( |
