Abstract

We present in figure form some of the hydrographic data collected on the Scotian Rise in September - October, 1980 as part of the HEBBLE program. Two full water column theta and S cross slope transects are presented together with two sigma sub 5 transects for comparison. Selected surface to bottom computed geostrophic velocity profiles are also presented. To focus further on conditions near the ocean bottom, two near bottom, cross slope theta and transmissibity transects are shown. Additionally, in the lowest 350 m for each station, there is shown a plot of theta, salinity, sigma sub 5, and transmissivity (where available). (Author)
