Plume Theory: Appendix D, Amundsen Sea

This is an appendix to: In Pursuit of Plume Theory - 3

Antarctica Areas A-F

In these graphs, the Buoyancy Factor relates to the difference between the density of the plume and the density of the ambient ocean water. The Specific Enthalpy applies only to the ambient ocean water. The Conservative Temperature (CT) and Absolute Salinity (SA) are  computed values of both the ocean water and the plume itself at three depth layers.
