description: The Barrow Strait flow observational program started in 1998 and continued for 13 years to 2012. Barrow Strait is the widest of the 4 passages through the Canadian Archipelago making it an important monitoring location. The program explores the magnitude and variability of freshwater, heat and volume transports through the eastern Northwest Passage. The data measured included: profile CTD and time series temperature, salinity, density, currents, ice draft and ice drift velocity. The time series data collected was used to quantify the freshwater discharge from the Arctic Ocean through Barrow Strait into the northwest Atlantic, and link variability in this freshwater outflow to large scale weather patterns. Annual analysis performed on the collected data include: low-pass filtering, power spectra, progressive vector diagram, tidal analyses, seasonal and monthly averaged stats, mean flow, and ice velocities. Data from the program, along with a description of the methods used, have been published annually in the Canadian Data Report of Hydrography and Ocean Sciences report number 190 to 195, 173, 167, 166, 165, 161, and 157. @en
description: Le programme d'observation du climat océanique du détroit de Barrow a débuté en 1998 et s'est poursuivi pendant 13 ans jusqu'en 2012. Le détroit de Barrow est le plus large des quatre passages de l'archipel canadien, ce qui en fait un lieu de surveillance important. Le programme explore l'ampleur et la variabilité des transports d'eau douce, de chaleur et de volume dans le passage du Nord-Ouest est. Les données mesurées comprenaient : la CTD du profil et la température des séries chronologiques, la salinité, la densité, les courants, le tirage de la glace et la vitesse de dérive de la glace Les données de séries chronologiques recueillies ont été utilisées pour quantifier le débit d'eau douce de l'océan Arctique à travers le détroit de Barrow dans l'Atlantique nord-ouest, et relier la variabilité de cet écoulement d'eau douce aux régimes météorologiques à grande échelle. Les analyses annuelles effectuées sur les données collectées comprennent : le filtrage passe-bas, les spectres de puissance, le diagramme vectoriel progressif, les analyses des marées, les statistiques moyennes saisonnières et mensuelles, le débit moyen et les vitesses des glaces. Les données du programme, ainsi qu'une description des méthodes utilisées, ont été publiées chaque année dans le rapport no 190 à 195, 173, 167, 166, 165, 161 et 157 du Canadian Data Report of Hydrography and Ocean Sciences.
