Summary: | As a component of the Greenland Sea Project, a hydrographic cruise was conducted on board the USNS BARTLETT during August 1990 in the southern Greenland Sea to continue the study of the southern half of the Greenland Gyre (GG) and the Jan Mayen Current (JMC) that was begun with the BARTLETT cruise of September 1989, previously reported by Bourke et al. (1989, 1990, 1992) and by Blythe (1990). A total of 44 high-quality CTD stations were occupied to depths of 1000 m. Contrasting with 1989, 21 instead of five of these stations extended to near bottom at depths of 2200 to 3500 m. |
