Description
Summary:The principal task is to deploy approximately 40 seafloor instruments and 9 current meter moorings in an array spanning the northern (strongest) current jet associated with the antarctic circumpolar current (acc) to provide a sufficiently dense three dimensional array of measurements of currents and temperature to provide answers to questions concerning the important momentum energy balances in the acc
