Resource Abstract:
- description: Current direction, temperature, and salinity data were collected using moored current meter casts in the North
Pacific Ocean from June 1, 1983 to August 1, 1983. Data were submitted by National Ocean Service (NOS). Data were processed
by NODC to the NODC standard Current Meter Data (F005) format. Full current meter moorings descriptions are available at http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f005.html.
The F005 format is used for time series measurements of ocean currents obtained using moored current-measuring instruments,
principally Aanderaa current meters (manufactured by Aanderaa Instruments Inc.). These data represent the Eulerian method
of current measurement, i.e., the meters are deployed at a fixed mooring point and measure flow past the sensor. Position,
water depth, and sensor depth are reported for each station. The data record comprises values of current direction and speed
at specified date and time. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at 10-15 minute
time intervals. Other environmental parameters may also be reported. These include: water temperature, salinity, conductivity,
and transmissivity; wind direction and speed; and dominant wave direction, height, and period. A text field is available for
optional comments.; abstract: Current direction, temperature, and salinity data were collected using moored current meter
