Data Report - SCIMP and YVETTE.

Abstract

Vertical profiles of velocity, density, their vertical derivatives, and a variety of related parameters derived from measurements made with two free-fall profilers are presented. These profiles represent a wide range of oceanographic regimes including the open ocean, eddies and rings, the Gulf Stream, the Norwegian Sea, and an equatorial location. The two instruments (YVETTE and SCIMP) are described, along with the techniques used to process the data. (Author)
