CTD Observations of the Arctic Ocean Halocline.

Abstract

The grant sponsored research on large-scale hydrographic changes that have occurred in the upper few hundred meters of the Arctic Ocean. We used data collected by US Navy submarines during 1993 and 1995 Scientific Ice Expeditions (SCICEX), by European icebreakers, and compared these data with a new climatology compiled using formerly classified data from Western and Russian sources.
