Abstract: Oxygen, nutrient, and tritium concentrations observed in the western Labrador Sea in March 1976 during deep convective renewal of Labrador Sea water are analyzed to show how a newly formed water mass obtains its characteristics. ...

Abstract: In a previous paper, Clarke and Gascard argued that the formation of Labrador Sea Water was taking place in a cyclonic gyre set up each winter in the western Labrador Sea. Within the gyre and at its boundaries, a number ...

Abstract: Data obtained in the western Labrador Sea during March 1976 by Hudson are analysed to show that new Labrador Sea Water was being formed at this time. On the basis of hydrographic and moored current-meter data, it is ...

Abstract: The hydrographic structure of the Labrador Sea during wintertime convection is described. The cruise, part of the Deep Convection Experiment, took place in February?March 1997 amidst an extended period of strong forcing ...

Abstract: During April?June 1972 three ships conducted a survey of the region between the Grand Banks and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, including a grid of hydrographic stations, and two long lines of near-bottom current-meter moorings ...
