Description
Summary:This report is a summary of direct current measurements between Iceland and Norway. The data presented were obtained from tables of observations in the Faeroe-Shetland Channel, the southern Norwegian Sea and the northern North Sea published by Mosby in 1962 and 1963, from a report of the 1960 International Iceland-Faeroe Ridge Expedition current observations by Joseph in 1967, and from three arrays implanted on the Iceland-Faeroe Ridge by the U.S. Naval Ordnance Laboratory (NOL) in 1972. An attempt is made to follow the major currents through the region.
