A Compilation of Observations from Moored Current Meters. Volume XII. Currents, Temperature and Pressure in the Drake Passage During F Drake 77, 78 - January 1977 - January 1979

摘要

These experiments were designed to study the time and space scales of flow variations near the Drake Passage and to expand knowledge of the distribution of water mass properties and their dynamics in this important region of the world's ocean. In this report, a compilation of the data from the FDRAKE 77 current meter arrays is presented.
