Unknown Unknown The surface circulation on Georges Bank is described from analysis of short-term deployments of surface drifters, 1995 and 1997-1999, GLOBEC. Surface currents/circulation on Georges Bank are described from short-term deployments (days) of surface drifters. Drifter positions and surface temperatures are reported at various uniform intervals per hour. Drifters were deployed during ten Spring cruises to the Georges Bank region, 1995 and 1997-1999 as part of the GLOBEC project.
