Abstract:
Repeat CTD sections were conducted across the Eastern Gulf of Maine
and Scotian Shelf by Canada's Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO)
as a contributing partner to the GLOBEC program. The objectives of this
work were to: (1) determine the seasonal hydrographic properties
along the eastern boundary of the Gulf of Maine, (2) measure the
... hydrographic structure over Truxton Swell and in Jordan Basin, and (3)
determine the extent of slope water penetration into Jordan Basin.
These CTD sections augment current meter deployments in the same
region. Ship and cruise dates are listed below:
Cygnus 98-079 Mar 03 Mar 31, 1999
Hudson 98-077 Nov 20 Nov 26, 1998
Parizeau 93-032 Oct 12 Oct 16, 1993
Parizeau 94-018 Jun 25 Jun 29, 1994
Parizeau 95-010 Jun 07 Jun 13, 1995
Parizeau 95-034 Nov 24 Dec 02, 1995
Parizeau 96-024 Sep 23 Sep 30, 1996
Parizeau 97-025 Jun 27 Jul 04, 1997
Parizeau 98-078 Feb 11 Feb 16, 1998
Parizeau 99-028 Sep 23 Sep 29, 1999
