Abstract:
In 1968, two current meter moorings where deployed in the Weddell Sea during a cruise with the vessel Glacier. At the two sites, B1 and B2, temperature and currents were measured for 265 and 460 days, at 634 and 640 meters depth, respectively. For more details see reference Foldvik et al. (1985) or Foldvik et al. (2004).
