Cruise Inventory Information
| Long name | RRS James Clark Ross (74JC) cruise JR20001121 (JR55) |
|---|---|
| Short name | JR20001121 (JR55) |
| Objectives and Narrative |
Objectives:
1. To determine the interannual variability of the position, structure, transport & other properties of the ACC at Drake Passage. 2. By comparing geostrophic velocities with those from the lowered ADCP, determine the size of ageostrophic motions & attempt to estimate barotropic components. 3. To examine the temperature & salinity structure of water flowing through Drake Passage. |
