Analysis, interpretation and publication of oceanographic observations in the Gulf Stream and its deep western boundary current off North Carolina will be completed to understand conductivity effects on motionally induced electric fields and to determine how the deep flow on the Blake-Bahamas Ridge is structured and maintained and how future monitoring of this undercurrent could be used as an indicator of climate change.

将完成对墨西哥湾流及其在北卡罗来纳州外的西部深海边界流的海洋学观测的分析、解释和出版，以了解电导率对运动引起的电场的影响，并确定布莱克-巴哈马海脊的深海流是如何构成和维持的，以及今后如何将对这一暗流的监测用作气候变化的指标。
