Description:

The primary objectives of the STACS program are to increase our understanding of the dynamics of the North Atlantic circulation and the role of ocean circulation in global climate, to develop the capability to monitor the climatically important processes, and to provide data needed in the development of the coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation models to be used for global climate prediction. In particular, the mechanisms by which the ocean transports heat to balance the net radiation deficit at northerly latitudes are being studied. The initial objectives of STACS were directed at the Florida Current, a flow which makes significant contribution to heat flux. After an intensive two-year observing program, we have the capability to monitor Florida Current transport without extensive ship-board observations. Data from STACS cruises conducted on the NOAA Ships Albatross 4 and Malcolm Baldrige during two cruises, February and August 1989, are contained in the report.
