Excerpt from Oceanographic Observations: North Atlantic Standard Monitoring Sections, 1964-1966
Section 4 extends from the southern Grand Banks southward across the Labrador Current, across the mixed waters of the Labrador Current and into the North Atlantic Current. Data from this section could indicate the boundaries of these currents and their relative strengths in the dynamic area where the Arctic waters of the Lab rador meet the subtropical waters of the Gulf Stream.
Sections 5, 6, and 7 encompass the region from Cape Kennedy to the Gulf of Maine and between the continental shelf and the deep offshore waters.
Data from these sections will provide information in the study of the Florida Current, Gulf Stream and North Atlantic Current systems.
