As part of the U.S. Joint Global Ocean Flux Study Southern Ocean
program, high-resolution surveys of the Antarctic Polar Front near 170øW were
conducted during October-November 1997 with a towed undulating system equipped
with conductivity-temperature-depth and bio-optical sensors. Transects along
170°W and two successive mapping surveys revealed zonal bands with...
Repeated mesoscale surveys of waters over the shelf and slope off Oregon were
conducted during spring and summer of 2001 to study the spatial structure of the velocity
and hydrographic fields. The ocean response to wind forcing is compared between a
region of relatively simple topography with alongshore uniformity and...
