Brief description

Observations of the Leeuwin Current, the poleward flow of warm, low salinity water off the west coast of Australia, are described from acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP), temperature and salinity (CTD) and moored current meter measurements from the Australian North West Shelf made in May and June 1993. Two cross-shelf and slope transects of ADCP and CTD measurements were completed at latitudes of approximately 17 and 19S.
