Marginal Ice Zone Experiment - 1984, Physical Oceanography Report: USNS Lynch and Helicopter-Based STD Data.
During the summer of 1984, the Arctic Oceanography Department of Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory acquired a total of 222 helicopter-based C/STD stations within the ice-covered region of the Fram Strait to a nominal depth of 500 m. This program was accomplished as part of an international exper...
