Abstract: Density and velocity data with 4-km horizontal resolution from a survey of a front during FASINEX (Frontal Air-Sea Interaction Experiment) are combined to describe the structure of the top 300 m of the ocean. The geostrophic ...

Abstract: Depth-averaged current shears computed from shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) and moored Savonius rotor and vane vector-averaging current meter (VACM) measurements are compared at 35, 62.5, 100 and 140 m ...

Abstract: The autonomous Lagrangian circulation explorer (ALACE) is a subsurface float that cycles vertically from a depth where it is neutrally buoyant to the surface where it is located by, and relays data to, System Argos satellites. ...

Abstract: A 3°N to 3°S transect of the equator at 140°15'W was made in November 1984. Vertical profiles of temperature, conductivity and turbulent dissipation were obtained at approximately 1 km intervals. Contrary to previous ...
