Project
Atlantic Meridional Transect (AMT)
The Atlantic Meridional Transect (AMT) multidisciplinary programme, which undertakes biological, chemical and physical oceanographic research during an annual voyage between the UK and destinations in the South Atlantic.
Established in 1995, the programme is a well respected and established scientific research programme which enables scientists to make open ocean observations through a wide latitudinal range, including the rarely sampled north and south Atlantic gyres. The AMT cruise programme is unique and facilitates a greater understanding of the ocean and the biogeochemistry within it.
