AMOC Or A Mock? - 3

Fig. 1 Thermohaline Map

The Wikipedia article linked to at Fig. 1 states that:

"While the bulk of thermohaline water upwells in the Southern Ocean, the oldest waters (with a transit time of approximately 1000 years) upwell in the North Pacific"

(Fig. 1 link). That means it began the "transit" in (2026-1000) in the year 1026.

Which gives rise to the question "who measured it first"?

Or "did someone find a note in one of those famous bottles" to determine this dicta (Message in a bottle: 10 famous floating note discoveries)?

In this series we are using actual in situ measurements stored in the World Ocean Database (WOD) to consider the scientific veracity of thermohaline hypotheses (AMOC Or A Mock?, AMOC Or A Mock? - 2).

Let's continue that practice with today's graphs in the appendix (Graphs).

That appendix contains three graphs of three longitude groups (Group 3, 5, and 6) featured in the Dredd Blog post Quantum Oceanography - 19.

Group 1, 2, and 4 did not have sufficient data to make graphs, so one must look those zones up in the HTML tables previous presented in this series previous two posts.

The location of the complete thermohaline zone list is shown (zones with red squares in them) in today's Graphs appendix.

The bottom line of all of this is that the 1000 year transit must not be complete yet because the huge thermo and haline upheaveals that are hypothesized would turn up as huge up and down sections of the graphs and HTML tables.

All that show up are lines of not that huge events (photons are small but there are exactly 6.02214076 x 10²³ photons per mole). 

I'm sticking with The Photon Current, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 , 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22.
