Purpose
Abstract METEOR cruise M82 consists of two legs to be carried out in the subpolar North Atlantic dealing with the circulation and transport variations of deep water, as well as one leg focusing on the hydrothermal system at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge near the Azores. Multibeam and CTD data were collected. 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.
