The new Mozambique heat flow map shows a predominantly low offshore heat flow of around 50 mW/m 2 , associated with the Jurassic and early Cretaceous age of the oceanic crust. Tropical cyclones (TC) i...

rd-flowing Mozambique Current along the western coast of the channel and highlighted the role of mesoscale eddies in heat and salinity transport. These mesoscale eddies are approximately 300 km
During the SISMAORE cruise to the Northern Mozambique Channel, we obtained new heat flow measurements at four sites, using sediment corers equipped with thermal probes.
The Mozambique Channel is a conduit of trade wind-driven throughflow that is a key component of the Agulhas Current and Agulhas leakage, a flux of warm and salty water from the tropical Indo-Pacific to
The Mozambique Channel, a complex domain composed of passive margins and oceanic crust affected by younger strike-slip and volcanic activity, is still poorly studied for surface heat flow.
During the SISMAORE cruise to the Northern Mozambique Channel, we obtained new heat flow measurements at four sites, using sediment corers equipped with thermal probes.
Offshore heat flow is generally low to normal and does not display strong variations. As poor data coverage persists in large parts of the area, we performed a heat flow prediction mapping
During the SISMAORE cruise to the Northern Mozambique Channel, we obtained new heat flow measurements at four sites, using sediment corers equipped with
During the SISMAORE cruise to the Northern Mozambique Channel, we obtained new heat flow measurements at four sites, using sediment corers equipped with thermal probes.
To gain a better understanding of the seasonal and interannual variations in the MLT in the Mozambique Channel and the influence of mesoscale eddies, a mixed layer heat budget analysis
Heat flow measurements acquired in the Northern Mozambique Channel during the SISMAORE cruise are low, with values in the range of 42–47 mW/m2. To-gether with other recent data in the area,
The upper ocean thermal structure in different parts of the MC – and in particular Mozambique eddies - appeared to play a role in TC intensification. The extent of this role will need to be more closely
