Inverted Echo Sounders in the Denmark Strait, as part of FS Poseidon 290 [POS290], June 6, 2002 – June 24, 2002
The overflow of cold dense water from the Denmark Strait is one of the key elements of the north Atlantic thermohaline circulation and has important consequences for global climate change. It is important to measure the transport of this water and to understand its variability on seasonal and at lon...
