Abstract:

A hull mounted Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler measured current velocity as a part of operations conducted in lease blocks GC600 and AT357 on cruise PE14-20. Data were collected on board the R/V Pelican, May 01-06, 2014.

Purpose:

These current velocity data were determined in support of ongoing mooring and deep sea lander experiments at 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)
