Book excerpt: The formational theory and characteristics of anticyclonic Gulf Stream eddies in the western North Atlantic Ocean are summarized. Their occurrence, trajectories, and structure, are observed using XBT data and infrared satellite imagery to relate their passage through Deepwater Dumpsite 106 off the New York Bight and over the continental slope and rise. The frequency with which these eddies pass through the dumpsite, their residence times within the dumpsite, and the total time they occur the dumpsite each year are computed to determine their potential effects on ocean dumping.
