Temperature observations are presented from 4 Aanderaa thermistor chains suspended from a free-floating surface buoy during October-November 1983 near 33.5° N, 126.5° W as part of the Mixed Layer Dynamics Experiment (MILDEX). Each chain contained 11 sensors; the upper two were 30 min length, the lower two were 100 m...
Observations of temperature and pressure in the upper 100 m were taken with a towed thermistor chain in January 1980 north of Hawaii. The observations were taken as a part of a cooperative investigation of the North Pacific subtropical front entitled FRONTS-80. The chain was towed on four occasions over...
Observations of temperature and pressure between 10 and 70 m depth
were taken with a towed thermistor chain during late August and early September, 1978, about 400 km northwest of Scotland as a part of the JASIN Experiment. The chain was usually towed at a speed of 3 mis around...
Vertical cross-sections of temperature in the Sargasso Sea and across
the Gulf Stream and a warm core ring were obtained with a towed thermistor
chain in September 1981. The thermistors were distributed in the upper
70 to 120 m during three runs. Salinity was also measured at two locations
on...
Temperature, salinity, density and turbulent dissipation profiles measured using the Rapid Sampling Vertical Profiler during the Coastal Transition Zone Experiment, July 1988.
Our component of the TROPIC HEAT 1987 experiment was
designed to investigate a number of questions raised by our
TROPIC HEAT 1984 measurements (Park et al, 1985; Mourn and
Caldwell, 1985; Mourn et al, 1986; Chereskin et al, 1986; Mourn et
al; 1987). In particular, the goals of LEG 2...
