Description
Summary:Funds were requested for completion of measurements of tracer samples (tritium, helium isotopes, oxygen isotopes, C14) from the ARCTIC 91 expedition, as well as for the interpretation of these data. Additionally, funds were requested for participation in an icebreaker expedition to the Arctic Ocean originally planned for 1995. This cruise could not be organized. Therefore, the funds were used for sample collection in the framework of the 1994 joint U.S./Canada Arctic ocean section (AOS 94).
