Current velocity from UCM-2 from 1980-10-10 to 1980-11-05 (NCEI Accession 8300027)
Current velocity data was collected by a UCM-2 three axis acoustic current meter for the ARLSOE'80 project.
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Wave/Current Observations (F181) format.
The F181 format is designed to support studies made by automated ocean sensoring devices. The format consists of ten record types. Record types A and B describe the basic environmental information to understand the data. Record types C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J are used to report current meter, water level, pressure gauge, wave height, and wave direction, spectra, fourier coefficients, and current meter respectively.
