Historical hydrographic transects of the Mid-Atlantic Bight
shelf-break front are compiled by month and described in this report.
Interannual variability of the meteorological forcing and slope
water mass properties are presented as an aid in interpreting the
variability of the frontal structure. Descriptions of the significant
features of the front, shelf and slope water masses precede the
compiled transects. The sections are limited to the upper 350 m of
the water column and a cross-shore extent of 280m.
