| Abstract | One of the project-relevant tasks on the crouse M85/1 was the servicing of two deep-sea mooring arrays installed at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR) and in the Deep Western Boundary Current (DWBC) off Flemish Cap. Both arrays, consisting of three moorings each, serve to estimate variations in the strength of the deep water export and the near-surface circulation as well as the composition of water masses. Multibeam data was not the main focus of the cruise and no further information have been provided by the responsible party. |
