Ziel der Reise / Objectives of Cruise:

Cruise objectives a) to educate undergraduate students in the handling of oceanographic instrumentation and in the collection and analysis of field data, b) to map the cold overflow through the Faroe-Bank Channel from the Norwegian Sea into the Icelandic Basin, c) to monitor the variability of the overflow through an array of current meter and CTD moorings, d) to identify the processes that are responsible for the mixing of the overflow plume with the ambient water of the North Atlantic and to quantify their relative contributions, e) to test two autonomous YoYo CTD systems.
