Brief description
This experiment, which included inverted echo sounders and pressure gauges as well as well as current meters, was designed by World Ocean Circulation Experiment coponent ACM4. The data have been organized into four groups, by ocean basin. * Atlantic Ocean data * Pacific Ocean data * Indian Ocean data * Southern Ocean data 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.

Statement: Aanderaa RCM8 current meters and unspecified brand inverted echo soundsers and pressure gauges.Notes
PurposeAfter completion of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) project the data were made available to the public.
