Cruise Notes: 

Summary of Field Work: The project's goal is to measure basin-width integrated fluxes of volume, heat, and freshwater fluxes in the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre with an array of moorings spanning the Labrador, Irminger, and Iceland Basins. This cruise will service U.S. and Dutch moorings in the Iceland and Irminger Basins and perform localized boundary current surveys in the region.
We plan to collect temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and velocity (LADCP) profiles at approximately 65 stations. We plan to service (deploy and recover) a total of 12 moorings in the Iceland and Irminger Basins.
