Anomalous Conditions in the Slope Water Area in 1959
An oceanographic section made with the research vessel Crawford in June 1959 showed that the proportion of Labrador-Coastal Water to Slope Water at the meridian 57°30′W was unusually large. Data from this section combined with bathythermograms taken elsewhere in the Slope Water area and direct deep...
