While in the stratosphere, the tritium interacted with and oxidized to water molecules and was present in much of the rapidly-produced rainfall, making tritium a prognostic tool for studying the evolution and structure of the hydrologic cycle as well as the ventilation and formation of water masses in the North Atlantic Ocean.In fact, bomb-tritium data were utilized from the Transient Tracers in the Ocean program in order to quantify the replenishment and overturning rates for deep water located in the North Atlantic.Most of the bomb tritiated water throughout the atmosphere can enter the ocean through the following processes: a) precipitation, b) vapor exchange, and c) river runoff – these processes make HTO a great tracer for time-scales up to a few decades.Using the data from these processes for the year 1981, the 1 TU isosurface lies between 500 and 1,000 meters deep in the subtropical regions and then extends to 1,500-2,000 meters south of the Gulf Stream due to recirculation and ventilation in the upper portion of the Atlantic Ocean.
