Data Report: COBLAMED '76 Tethered Buoy Experiment.

Abstract

From 10-25/Sep/1976 upper ocean temperature and horizontal current measurements were made in the Gulf of Lyons, south of Toulon. Simultaneous moored data were obtained from the fixed oceanographic platform BORHA II and a satellite buoy tethered at horizontal separations from 100-1000m. In addition, time series of wind, other meteorological parameters, and vertical conductivity-temperature-depth profiles were obtained. The data set presented in this memorandum will be used to examine the upper ocean internal wave field and its relation to local forcing mechanisms. (Author)
