Abstract :
Ice observations, results, and conclusions are summarized for the March 1987 Labrador Ice Margin Experiment (LIMEX´87), an international oceanographic study conducted in the pack ice of the Grand Banks area off the coast of Newfoundland. Included are the ice extent, flow size and thickness, ice kinematics and rheology, ice microwave properties, oceanic properties under the ice, and penetration of swell into the ice
