Short summary
We used ocean gliders to measure separate circulation branches of warm Atlantic water flowing into the Arctic through a key passage west of Svalbard. Over three years, gliders revealed that two main current branches together carry about five million m3 s-1 northward, with large variations linked to wind patterns. These currents influence Arctic ice and climate. Our study shows gliders can capture changes missed by traditional methods, and year-round missions are needed for a complete picture.
