Some observations on the Labrador current at Saglek, Labrador

Abstract

This project describes the processing of S.T.D. and current meter data which was obtained at Saglek, Labrador in August 1972. The current meter records reveal tidal period oscillations in the Labrador Current and two very good records of inertial currents. Ocean densities were calculated, from the S.T.D. reading and an attempt was made to calculate current velocity from density differences.
