DIMES is a US/UK field program aimed at measuring diapycnal and isopycnal mixing in the Southern Ocean. The main goal of DIMES UK3 cruise was to survey the Scotia Sea in search for tracer (trifluoromethyl sulphur pentafluoride, CF3SF5) and to perform microstructure profiling. These are some photos taken aboard the R/V James Cook during February and March of 2012. More infomation about the cruise can be found at the cruise blog.
