👉 The Gulf Fluid, also known as the Deep Western North Atlantic Water (DWAW), is a dense and cold body of water that originates in the high latitudes of the North Atlantic, primarily around Greenland and Iceland. This fluid sinks to great depths due to its high salinity and low temperature, forming a significant component of the global thermohaline circulation. Once it descends, it spreads southward along the ocean floor, influencing deep-water currents and playing a crucial role in regulating Earth's climate by transporting heat and nutrients across vast distances. The Gulf Fluid is characterized by its unique chemical composition, including high concentrations of dissolved salts and minerals, which contribute to its density and stability in the deep ocean.
