    Description: Oceanographic measurements by groups from the Federal Republic of Germany contributed mainly to the C-Scale Experiment (centered at 9° N, 23° W) and the Equatoria1 Experiment. In this paper the data are presented that were obtained from the moorings F 1 and F 2 in the C-area. After a short discussion of instrument problems, data processing and statistical analysis, the data are presented graphically as time series, progressive vector diagrams, frequency distributions and spectra of horizontal kinetic energy and of temperature variance.

    Description: The Bass Strait cascade is a wintertime downwelling caused by cooling of the shallow waters of Bass Strait. During winter, a front separates the cold shelf water from the waters of the Tasman Sea. Continuous horizontal bands of downwelled water leading oceanward beneath the front imply that it can be transgressed near the bottom anywhere along its length. However, by far the greatest volume crosses at a breach at the northern end. Measured currents in eastern Bass Strait fit a predictable pattern: eastward toward the front, then as the front is approached, swinging north towards the breach. Flow northwards along the slope after downwelling is quantified using a simple analytic model. Cascade water found in the “far-field” was found only in small patches. One such patch was found to possess motion independent from the mean flow in which it was embedded.

    Description: Hydrographic observations from the Iberian Basin demonstrate the variability of water masses in upper and intermediate layers. The surveyed area embraces the internal front between water masses from higher latitudes and the Mediterranean outflow, exhibits several isolated Mediterranean eddy (meddy) structures at middepth, and displays the virtual source region for the Mediterranean Water (MW) tongue off the Portuguese continental slope. The description is enhanced by additional chlorofluoromethane measurements, which show anomalously high concentrations at middepth, due to mixing of MW with the overlying Atlantic waters in the Gulf of Cadiz. The geostrophic stream function shows several meddylike features that not only are remarkably extended in the depth range of the MW, but are also correlated with surface height anomalies.

    Description: Salzreiches Wasser, das durch die Straße von Gibraltar aus dem Mittelmeer in den Atlantik strömt, wird dort verwirbelt und driftet teilweise als rotierende Salzlinse in etwa 1000 Meter Tiefe manchmal mehr als zwei Jahre lang bis zu 1000 Kilometer weit, ehe es sich endgültig mit dem Atlantikwasser vermischt.

    Description: The energy transfer by the wind to near-inertial internal waves is discussed using a theoretical model developed by Käse and TangJournal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, 33, 2323–2328, (1976). The model transfer at the inertial frequency is View the MathML source, where F is the wind stress spectrum and Lj is an integral length scale defined by equation (6). It is shown that significant transfer rates of order 1 erg cm−2s−1 as observed for example by LeamanJournal of Physical Oceanography, 6, 894–908 (1976) could be generated by moderate winds in case of small vertical scales Lj, which are the consequence of a mixed layer above a sharp thermocline.
