Brief description
Data from moorings that were in place for at least 6 months in deep water and include meteorological data, pressure records and temperature records gathered by the Oregon State University (OSU) Buoy Group over a span of more than 35 years. In addition, included are a number of electronic (i.e., browser-formatted) data reports. This dataset relates to current meter records from the Arlindo experiement. Other links available on this site will take you to the collection of data reports, an historical retrospective of the Buoy Group and instructions on how to download the data for the following: * Atlantic Ocean data * Pacific Ocean data * Indian Ocean data * Southern Ocean data * Electronic data reports * History of the Group * How to use this diskLineage
Statement: The data were recorded with ADCPs and Aanderaa RCM8 current meters. The Aanderaa records also contains a data report for the Arlindo experiment which shows plots of the current records and various statistics.Notes
