Abstract:

A hull mounted Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler measured current velocity as a part of operations conducted in BOEM lease blocks GC600 and AT357 on cruise PE13-30. Data were collected on board the R/V Pelican, June 02-11, 2013.

Purpose:

These current velocity data were determined in support of ongoing mooring and deep sea lander experiments at BOEM lease blocks GC600 and AT357.

Data Parameters and Units:

u = Eastward sea water velocity (m/s), v = Northward sea water velocity (m/s); Ensemble #; Date (yyyymmdd); Time (hmmss.ss); N (Latitude, decimal minutes); W (Longitude, decimal minutes)
