Drifter track data from drifters deployed on multiple R/V Endeavor, Albatross IV, Oceanus, Delaware, Cape Hatteras, Parizeau, and CCGS Cygnus cruises in the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank from 1995-1999. Satellite-tracked drifters with holey sock drogues centered at 10, 15 and 40-m depths were deployed over Georges Bank during 1995-99 in support of the U.S. GLOBEC/Georges Bank Program.
