Project’s aim is to monitor and simulate
The fluxes through the CAA as part of the Arctic-Atlantic ocean conveyor belt circulation
From G. Holloway
CAA- Canadian Arctic Archipelago
Barrow Strait - Lancaster Sound

Problem:
Can not moor instruments in surface layer because of mobile

Where are we heading with the CAA research
-Moorings in until August 2007?????
