Abstract: Nearly continuous current measurements at 45 and 75 m were made from May 1975 to March 1979 at 40°51?N, 67°24?W on the southern flank of Georges Bank in water 85 m deep. Measurements at 15 and 84 m were made less often. ...

Abstract: Comparison of several years of current observations on the southern flank of Georges Bank with nearby wind data shows that the wind?current coupling is primarily between longshelf wind stress and longshelf current. The ...

Abstract: A field evaluation of two new dissolved-oxygen sensing technologies, the Aanderaa Instruments AS optode model 3830 and the Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc., model SBE43, was carried out at about 32-m water depth in western ...

Abstract: Strong correlations were observed among subtidal longshelf currents from the Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) to the Georges Bank region, a distance spanning 615 km. The longshelf current consisted predominantly of wind-forced ...

Abstract: Long-term current observations at 45 and 75 m at one location on the southern flank of Georges Bank in water 85 m deep were examined for evidence of tidal rectification. Loder has shown analytically that rectification of ...

Abstract: Subtidal current fluctuations in the Middle Atlantic Bight are examined from current-meter data collected in 1975 and 1976. Spectral analysis provides evidence for both locally wind-forced response and free waves that ...

Abstract: This paper describes the design and performance of a two-dimensional moored array for sampling horizontal variability in the upper ocean. The mooring was deployed in Massachusetts Bay in a water depth of 84 m for the purpose ...

Abstract: Temperature data spanning the entire Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) during 1979 are used to study the structure and evolution of the cold pool. The Nantucket Shoals and New England Shelf appear to be the source of the coldest ...
