Oceanographic data from the Global Atmospheric Research Program (GARP) Atlantic Tropical Experiment (GATE) experiment, 1974-06-15 to 1974-09-23

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2023-08-13T00:00:00.000+00:00
This collection includes data from the Global Atmospheric Research Program (GARP) Atlantic Tropical Experiment (GATE) experiment. GATE was the first major international experiment of the GARP. It was conducted over the tropical Atlantic Ocean and adjacent land areas under the joint auspices of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU). The field operations extended from June through September 1974, with headquarters located in Dakar, Senegal.
