Annual oceanographic surveys were made in the Labrador Sea and in the Davis Strait off Southwest Greenland during late June-mid-July from 1950 to 1984 by the Greenland (Danish) Fisheries Research Institute.

The zooplankton sampling gear was a 2 m (diameter) stramin ring-net with 1 mm mesh. Tows were made for 30 minutes at about 2 knots.
