One of the objectives of this expedition is to collect data on the interaction of the waters of the Atlantic Ocean and Narragansett Bay at the end of the warmer months of the year. In December 2005 another expedition will be conducted to collect comparative data. A scan fish will be used to map the currents above and below the surface of the water.
