    Hydrographic station data obtained in the vicinity of Georges Bank, May and August, 1976
    (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-08) Limeburner, Richard ; Vermersch, John A. ; Beardsley, Robert C.
    Two extended cruises were made during May and August, 1976, to measure the regional hydrographic structure in the vicinity of Georges Bank on the New England Continental Shelf. A summary of the hydrographic observations made during Cruise E2B76 on the R/V Eastward and leg 3 of Cruise 13 on the R/V Oceanus are presented in graphic form.

    Nantucket shoals flux experiment (NSFE79) : part 2, moored array data report
    (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1983-11) Beardsley, Robert C. ; Alessi, Carol A. ; Vermersch, John A. ; Brown, W. Steven ; Pettigrew, Neal R. ; Irish, James D. ; Ramp, Steven R. ; Schlitz, Ronald J. ; Butman, Bradford
    The Nantucket Shoals Flux Experiment (NSFE79) was conducted across the continental shelf and upper slope south of Nantucket from March, 1979 to April , 1980 to measure the flow of shelf water from the Georges Bank/Gulf of Maine region into the Middle Atlantic Bight. Conceived as a cooperative field experiment involving the Northeast Fisheries Center (NMFS), U.S. Geological Survey (Woods Hole), University of New Hampshire, and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, the experiment contained two principal components, a moored array of current meter and bottom instrumentation deployed at six locations across the shelf and upper slope spanning a depth range from 46 m to 810 m, and a series of 27 hydrographic surveys made along or near the moored array line during the experiment. A basic description of the NSFE79 hydrographic data has been given in Part 1 by Wright (1983). A description of the moored array components and the basic moored array data sets is presented here in Part 2.

    New England Shelf/Slope Experiment : February to August, 1976 : data report : the moored array
    (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1980-01) Ou, Hsien Wang ; Vermersch, John A. ; Brown, Wendell A. ; Beardsley, Robert C.
    The New England Shelf/Slope Experiment (NESS76) was conducted from February to August in 1976 over the continental margin south of the New England coast. The initial objective of the experiment was to examine the kinematic and dynamic coupling of the low frequency oceanic motions between the outer New England shelf and the deeper slope/rise regions; and in particular, to monitor simultaneously the current, temperature, and bottom pressure fluctuations across the New England continental margin. The field program contained several components: (1) a six-month moored array to monitor current, temperature, and bottom pressure; (2) two hydrographic cruises conducted around the moored array; (3) a collection and synthesis of the synoptic meteorological data; and (4) detailed bathymetric surveys conducted around the deeper moorings. The two hydrographic cruises were conducted during May 11-21 and August 12-23 of 1976, and the initial results from the cruises have been reported elsewhere by Limeburner, Vermersch, and Beardsley (1978). Only the moored array and the meteorological data will be presented here.
