The Marine Turbulence Laboratory has recently completed a fieldwork component of the LatMix experiment. Over the course of three weeks in June 2011, a large assortment of oceanographic instrumentation was deployed on the East side of the Gulf Stream, including the MTL T-REMUS, gateway buoy, and thermistor chain.
