[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: The overall objective of the Coastal Mixing and Optics (CMO) program
was to determine how particles and optical properties respond to
physical forcing under various oceanic conditions on a broad
continental shelf off the east coast of the U.S.

Th SeaSoar microstructure component studied the spatial distribution
of mixing and optical properties. Contemporaneous measurements were
made of density, ...
