Reconstruction of the circulation during 1990-1991
Attention: all temperature, salinity, velocity and SSH fields
are availabed upon request. Please send your requests to gleb@iarc.uaf.edu
Goals: (1) Reconstruct the circulation; (2) Estimates of the
ice-ocean heat/salt fluxes; (3) Estimates of the transport
Data: (1) Hydrophysicals surveys during September and October 1990
and October 1991 (2) 11 moorings with CTD and current meters
(3) Meteorological data

Pilot study: Reconstruction of the circulation during October-November 1990.
Assimilation of the 9-days low-passed velocity and CTD data.
