This report presents data collected in the last two weeks of October 1974 from Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory's research vessel VEMA during the first of a series of cruises designed to examine the seasonal variations in the physical oceanography and geochemistry of the New York Bight. The physical oceanography data includes the hydrography, nephelometry, bottom photography, and currents. The aim of the project is to understand the interaction between shelf, slope and oceanic waters and the mechanisms that determine the fate of energy-related pollutants in the New York Bight.
