Abstract
During June 1966, nine velocity measurements were made with neutrally buoyant floats at a depth of about 2500 m along a section crossing the Gulf Stream near 38° N, 69°W. In combination with hydrographic stations bracketing each float trajectory, these measurements yielded a volume transport of 101 × 106 m3/sec for the Stream as of that time and locatio
