ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The Gulf Stream Meanders Experiment was supported by the Office/

of Naval Research, contract number N00014-77-C-0354, and by the

National Science Foundation, grant numbers OCE 77-25682 and OCE 79-

06710. We thank the crews of U.S. Navy Squadron VXN-8 and the personnel

of the Airborne Oceanography Section of the U.S. Naval Oceanographic

Office for their assistance in the collection of the AXBT and PRT

data aboard the R/A Project Seascan. Special thanks to Messrs. Gary

Athey, Jeffrey Kerling, Peter Kupstas, and Terry Kelly for their work

before and during the flights. Numerous people assisted in the data

collection, among them are many of the graduate students at the Uni-

versity of North Carolina, Texas A & M University, and North Carolina

State University. We thank Russell Ault for his assistance with the

tedious task of processing the data, Jean Willson for digitizing the

original AXBT and PRT analog plots, Karen Lorenson and Kimberly Clark

for drafting the final figures. We thank Dr. Richard Legeckis of

NOAA/NESS for providing us with the satellite cover photo, which makes

the motivation for this experiment clear in an instant.
