This book presents oceanographic surveys from American research expeditions conducted aboard US Coast Guard vessels, supplementing existing knowledge of ocean currents, temperatures, and salinities around the Grand Banks of Newfoundland and the Labrador Sea during the spring of 1969. Building upon the work of many previous research cruises, the author examines the physical oceanography of these regions, focusing in particular on dynamic topography, the time variation of the Labrador Current, and interpreting these in the context of seasonal fluctuations and broader, longer-term changes in oceanic circulation. The data and interpretations in this book will serve as valuable reference points for ongoing and future investigations of the Northwest Atlantic, a dynamic and complex region with global implications for weather and climate, movement of sea ice, and the distribution of marine life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
