HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, WATER TEMPERATURE and INSTRUMENT - DEPTH, and other data from FIXED PLATFORM as part of the Bering Sea Marginal Ice Zone Experiment (MIZEX/WEST) from 1982-10-22 to 1983-05-09 (NCEI Accession 8400015)

This dataset includes water temperature and pressure data collected using Aanderaa water level meter in the Bering Sea from 10/23/82 to 5/10/83 as part of the Bering Sea Marginal Ice Zone Experiment (MIZEX/WEST) by Science Applications, Inc. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Pressure Gauge (F017) format. The F017 format contains time series measurements of seawater pressure from anchored or bottom-mounted sensors. Measurements of variations at depth of seawater pressure provide information on tidal and storm flows, ocean circulation, and other phenomena that cause changes in sea surface elevation or slope and that can be detected from their pressure signature. Position, bottom depth, and gauge depth are reported for each station. The data record comprises values of total pressure at specified date and time. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at time intervals of 10-15 minutes. Seawater temperature may also be reported. Comments may be reported in a text record.
