Arctic Ice Dynamics Joint Experiment 1975-1976, Physical Oceanography Data Report Profiling Current Meter Data. Volume 4. Camp Big Bear.
The oceanographic program of the 1975-1976 ARCTIC ICE DYNAMICS JOINT EXPERIMENT (AIDJEX) was designed to investigate the Arctic Ocean on space scales of 100 kilometers in the horizontal and hundreds of meters in the vertical. This was accomplished with oceanographic observations from a triangular ar...
