Mizlant 86 Data Report Results of an Oceanographic Cruise to Northern Baffin Bay and Nares Strait in September 1986.
Salinity and temperature measurements were made at 145 oceanographic stations in northern Baffin Bay and the waters to the north as far as the southern fringes of the Lincoln Sea. Intermediate water from the West Spitzbergen Current is shown to turn westward and enter Lancaster Sound, being walled o...
