A REPORT OF DATA OBTAINED IN FLORIDA STRAITS AND OFF THE WEST COAST OF FLORIDA, JULY-DECEMBER 1960

Abstract

Data were obtained on four cruises of R/V GERDA in Florida Straits and the eastern part of the Gulf of Mexico during the latter half of 1960. The general purpose of the cruises was to provide data for the study of (a) the kinematics of the water movements in Florida Straits and adjacent waters, with special regard to seasonal variations; and (b) the physical environment of organisms, especially the shrimp population in- habiting Florida Bay. The itineraries followed are shown in charts immediately preceding the list of data relating to a particular cruise. (Author)
