Hydrographic measurements in the southern Iceland and Norwegian Seas during June and August, 1989

Abstract

This memorandum documents an extensive collection of CTD data made during two cruises in the region between Greenland and Norway

with emphasis on the Iceland-Faeroe Ridge. A summary of data collection and processing procedures is given, and some oceanographic features are noted. The main content of the memorandum, however, consists of appendices in which the data are displayed. A total of 25 sections, comprised of some 220 stations altogether, are presented as contours of temperature, salinity and sound speed, and as T-S diagrams.
