Purpose | |
Abstract | The measurement program of M68/2 consisted of station hydrographic observations with a CTD/O2 rosette including water sampling for tracer, oxygen and nutrient probing. Of particular importance were underway current measurements with both shipboard ADCPs. Though multibeam has been recorded during the cruise, it was not a major focus and the responsible party provided no acquisition information. |
