The data incorporated in this report consists of 509 tritium and 467
helium isotope measurements made on samples collected on two cruises to the
"Beta Triangle" area, an approximately 1000 km on a side triangle centered
near 27.5°N, 33.5°W in the eastern subtropical Atlantic. The first cruise
(AII-107, H. Stonunel, Chief Scientist) occurred in the auturrm of 1979, and
consisted of the Triangle survey with a short meridional section along 38.5°W
(approximately 6°N to 27°N) appended. The second cruise (OC-78, H. Stommel,
L. Armi, co-Chief Scientists) occurred in March, 1980 and was an abbreviated
subsampling of the triangle.
