A Compilation of Moored Current Meter Data and Associatied Oceanographic Observations. Volume XVII. POLYMODE Array II Data.
Abstract
Summaries of observations from moored stations and CTD profiles taken during POLYMODE Array 11 are presented. Data series of twenty-seven months duration at 12 locations were achieved with 3 consecutive deployments. Current meters were set at nominal depths of 600, 1000, 1500 and 4000 meters at eight of the locations and at 4000 meters at the remainder. Nine data series of eight months duration were obtained at similar depths at 3 additional locations. Low passed east and north current components, temperature and pressure from current meters and temperature/pressure recorders are displayed graphically and in tabular form. Spectral diagrams are plotted for temperature and the vector components when a continuous two year time series was achieved. Progressive vector plots are included for velocity data. Selected CTD data are presented as potential temperature and slainity values plotted against pressure. (Author)
