Abstract:
The METEOR expedition M188 SONETT II, conducted in the southeast Atlantic, represents a collaborative initiative within the TRR181 framework. It brings together various observational projects with the goal of integrating diverse process studies to observe multiple energy compartments. This cruise coincided with the 'fast-sampling' (CalVal) phase of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission. During the expedition, a total of 30 Hereon Surface Drifters were deployed.
