Purpose | |
Abstract | Research cruise M62/2 focussed on the physical oceanography of the western tropical Atlantic Ocean. The measurement program of M62/2 consisted of on-station hydrographic and current observations with a CTD-O2 probe and with an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) attached to the CTD-rosette. Though multibeam data was recorded, it was not the main focus of the cruise and no further information have been provided by the responsible party. |
