Diep water langs de noordkust van Zuid-Amerika
Results of CICAR-investigations off the northern Southamerican coast during autumn 1970 and spring 1971 are given, concerning the water below the 10oC-isotherm. Topographies of the sigma rt =27.3 and 27-4 surfaces indicate a motion of the Subantarctic Intermediate Water mass along the continental ri...
