ACDP Data, hourly ocean current velocities, Mar-Sept 2001-2002, Drake Passage and Continental Margin off Western Antarctic Peninsula, GLOBEC
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Data from a ship-mounted Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) are reported from 7 cruises to the Antarctic, March - September 2001 and 2002.
Description
The survey area includes the continental margin off the Western Antarctic Peninsula and the adjacent inshore water of Marguerite Bay and Crystal Sound. Ancillary north/south sections across the Drake Passage are reported for transects from Punta Arenas, Chile to the study area and return.
Data reported: hourly averaged values of the U (east-west) and V (north-south) components of ocean currents, for 8 meter depth bins between 26 and ~350 meters, along the ships' tracks.
