ACDP Data, 5min. ensemble avrgs. of 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 ship 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 bodies 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: five minute ensemble 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 track.
