- eds.
A research expedition to the Nares Abyssal Plain was conducted on board the R/V Endeavor between November 9-27, 1985. The primary objectives of the expedition were to recover and deploy current meter moorings Nares II and III, respectively, and to obtain the necessary physical, chemical, and biological data for input to an environmental model being developed for this area. Severe weather conditions related to Hurricane Kate during Leg I limited the amount of data obtained. Each of the primary objectives was achieved, however, and enough data were collected to provide a cursory evaluation of the environmental characteristics of the Nares Abyssal Plain.
