Description
Summary:A joint U.S.-Canadian midwinter oceanographic expedition was made to the waters north of the Greenland-Scotland ridges aboard the Canadian scientific vessel CSS Hudson during February-April 1982, principally in the region between Jan Mayen and Spitsbergen. The goals were: (1) to observe conditions in the surface waters in winter, especially in the Greenland Sea and in the northern Norwegian SEa; (2) to exploit useful tracer signals such as salinity, dissolved oxygen, dissolved silica and other nutrients, tritium, freons, and isotopes of cesium; and (3) to map regional variations in the various water masses. This volume reports data collected aboard the Hudson from the Conductivity/Temperature/Dept h (CTD)/rosette casts and results of alkalinity, total inorganic carbon, and tritium analyses. The data from each CTD cast are displayed in two standard formats: (1) Temperature and salinity versus pressure from 0 to 600 db, or less at shallow stations; and (2) Potential temperature versus salinity for all data colder than 3 C, with salinities from 34.70 - 35.06. Keywords: Sea water; Oceanographic data. See also Volume 1, AD-A156 086.
