Abstract
In late June, 1990, a 17-day cruise aboard R/V ENDEAVOR was undertaken to investigate the manner in which the Deep
Western Boundary Current (DWBC) crosses under the Gulf Stream. Forty-four CTD casts, comprising five sections, were made
along with bottle measurements of Dissolved Oxygen, Nitrate, Nitrite, Phosphate, Silica, F-1l, and F-12. An acoustic transport
float (POGO) was deployed at each station to obtain a measurement of the upper layer transport. The shipboard Acoustic Doppler
Current Profiler (ADCP) measured currents thoughout the cruise. This report presents vertical profiles and sections of the bottle
and CTD data a vector map of the average POGO currents, and listings of the bottle data.
