Joint US-USSR Mid-Ocean Dynamics Experiment (POLYMODE); Deep-sea moorings; Oceanographic instrumentsAbstract
The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Buoy Group's
field work for the international POLYMODE program consisted of
deployment and recovery of seventy of the seventy- eight program
moorings on eight research cruises. The mooring program consisted
of four distinct experiments conducted from June of 1974 to November
of 1979. A brief description of the arrays is provided, the mooring
design process for a typical POLYMODE mooring is explained, and
brief summaries are given of the WHO! deployment and recovery cruises.
Appendix I is a schematic presentation of the chronological mooring
history; Appendix Il lists details of the seventy WHO! moorings deployed
in the POLYMUDE program and Appendix II I lists details of
other WHOI moorings that may be of interest to investigators .
