Description
Summary:DRAKE-02 Cruise (29HE20020219) carried out on the Research Vessel Hespérides in 2002 Study of the circulation and bathymetry of the environment of the circumpolar current (DRAKE). Objectives: 1-To study the geographic variations of the differents water masses present in Drake passage, Brandsfield sea and Decepcion Island. 2-To verify the NOAA satellites radiometer formalism comparing in situ measurements simultaneously recorded in the Antartic Ocean and Cadiz Gulf with satellite data. 3-To verify the Topex-Poseidon, ERS-2 altimeters by direct comparation of the geostrophic currents computed from altimetry and local currents simultaneous measurements. 4- To compare satellite altimeter data with gravimeter continous records
