A Compilation of Moored Current Meter and Wind Recorder Data. Volume 35. Long-Term Upper Ocean Study (LOTUS) (Moorings 764, 765, 766, 767, 770), May 1982-April 1983.

Abstract

LOTUS was a two-year experiment near 34 deg N, 70 deg W, designed to acquire and analyse a continuous set of measurements of currents and temperatures in the upper, open ocean together with local hydrography, meteorology, and mesoscale oceanographic features. The first scientific moorings were deployed in May 1982. The first year of mooring data, from May 1982-April 1983, is presented here.
