Description: This report describes the preliminary results of the cruise of the Canadian ice breaker CCGS      SIR JOHN FRANKLIN to northern Baffin Bay and Nares Strait during September 1986.      Over 175 CTD stations were made including 28 taken during a 36-hour time series. Closely      spaced stations were acquired across Lancaster, Jones, and Smith Sounds. CTD data and      bathymetric profiles were obtained throughout the length of Nares Strait (to 82 deg 09 min      N). Three transects were also made across the West Greenland Current in which a      moderately strong front was noted.
