Towed observations of internal waves in the upper ocean

Observations between 20 and 40 m depth were made with a towed thermostor chain in the North Pacific. Despite the rapid vertical variation of buoyancy frequency, spectra of isotherm displacements are in fair agreement with other observations and with the Garrett-Munk model.
