Description:During 1991, a collaborative program between the United States and Barbados was established with the support of NOAA's Climate and Global Change Atlantic Climate Change Program to conduct regular measurements of the transport and water mass characteristics on the major southern passages to the Carribbean Sea. The purpose of the program is to determine the quantity and time-variability of South Atlantic surface, thermocline, and intermediate waters flowing into the North Atlantic in compensation for southward cross-equatorial transport of North Atlantic Deep Water, and to establish an economical means for future monitoring of this transport loop. This report contains data collected on cruise WI-07 of this program.
