  • Abstract
    The tides and currents section, Marine Sciences Branch, Pacific Region, has taken delivery of ten aanderaa model TG lA water level gauges. These gauges are of new design, and in their first application will form the nucleus of a study of tides and storm surges in the Beaufort Sea. The gauges will be placed through the ice in April, 1974, and recovered and replaced in the beginning of the ice-free season. This report will treat problems with placement and recovery of the gauges, and a first time evaluation of the effectiveness of the gauge.
