Palmer LTER: Upper ocean circulation in the LTER region from historical sources. Hofmann, E. E., Lascara, C. M., & Klinck, J. M. Antarctic Journal of the United States, 1992.
abstract   bibtex   
The LTER sampling region encompasses an area along the Antarctic Peninsula that is roughly 900 km alongshore and 200 km offshore. This region includes portions of Bransfield Strait, Gerlache Strait, and the Bellingshausen Sea and is influenced by adjacent areas such as Drake Passage, the Weddell Sea and Marguerite Bay. The Antarctic Circumpolar Current forms the northern boundary of the study region. Historical descriptions of water mass distributions and circulation patterns are available for selected portions of the LTER region. These previous studies were either concentrated on subareas within the LTER study area or were at the periphery of the LTER region. The purpose of this paper is to synthesize the existing hydrographic and current observations to provide a description of the major circulation features in the LTER study region.
