The vectors are from a composite flow field from ten crossings of ADCP data gridded relative to the position of the front, determined by the ADCP sea surface thermister (indicated by the colors of the line at the sea surface), from [Johnson, 1996]. The subsurface temperatures are from shipboard CTD data arranged as distance perpendicular to the front using the positions determined by [Johnson, 1996]. The continuous temperature sections to either side of the front are from UOR data [Aiken and Bellan, 1990].
