U.S East Coast Rig Instrumentation Program - measured and observed oceanographic and meteorological data from rigs operating in the Baltimore Canyon OCS area from 1978-09-01 to 1979-04-30 (NCEI Accession 7900288)
The oceanographic-meteorological data were collected during the months of September 1978 to April 1979 by the Baltimore Canyon Operators who are participants in the U.S. East Coast Rig Instrumentation Program. This data is submitted to comply with USGS Notice to Lesses 78-5. Data from the joint industry funded instrumented rig (PACESETTER III, operated by Mobil) is presented in the first section of the attached reports. Supplemental data collected by other operators is tabulated in the second section. The codes for cloud cover and visibility observations are also included.
