The hydrography and heat fluxes between South Africa and Antarctica

Bibliography: leaves 110-120. / Hydrographic sections between Africa and Antarctica; the A12, SR02 and SR02 sections conducted in 1990, 1990 and 1993 are presented here in comparison with the AJAX section of 1984. The numbered sections were undertaken as part of WOCE to better understand the ocean and the role it plays in the distribution of heat, salt, oxygen and nutrients south of Africa. In this study the focus was put on the SR02 section done in 1993 by South African scientists. The three sections also provided for a fresh look at the spatial and temporal variability of the hydrographic environment along the Greenwich Meridian.
