Description:This report presents horizontal distributions of the expected or mean surface and bottom temperature on the Northeast Continental Shelf ofthe United States from Cape Hatteras to the Gulf of Maine for the beginning and middle of each month. The data used to generate these distributions are from the period 1977-87 and were obtained as part of the Marine Resources Monitoring, Assessment, and Prediction (MARMAP) program. MARMAP is an interdisciplinary program to measure the distribution of plankton, nutrients, and physical water properties over the continental shelf from Cape Hatteras to the Gulf of Maine (Sherman 1980). Summaries of other parameters measured by MARMAP may be found in Morse et al. (1987) and Sibunka and Silverman (1984).
