Abstract
  • This report presents CTD observations of temperature & salinity as a function of hydrostatic pressure in the Kuroshio Extension. The data was taken during the deployment of a ten element current meter array in the Kuroshio in July 1980. CTD lowerings were made from the surface to the ocean floor along a north-south section) at 152°E, with 22 nearly equally spaced stations from 29°N-41°N. It is the first "eddy resolving" hydrographic section from the surface to the bottom in the Kuroshio Extension. The scientific objectives of this survey are to document the water masses presently in this area and compute the buoyancy frequency and geostrophic relative currents from the surface to the bottom.
