The Long Term Upper Ocean Study (LOTUS) Cruise Summary and Hydrographic Data Report - OCEANUS 129 - October 1982.
OCEANUS cruise number 129 (28 October - 4 November, 1982) was the eighth in a series of cruises to the Long Term Upper Ocean Study (LOTUS) area centered at 34 deg. N, 70 deg. W. In the LOTUS area seven SOFAR floats were launched, two moorings were recovered (a LOTUS surface mooring and a C.S. Draper...
