Ocean circulation and other data from SUBSURFACE FLOATS from the NE Atlantic (limit-40 W) and other locations as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) and other projects from 1984-10-03 to 1993-06-03 (NCEI Accession 9500042)

Metadata Updated: December 1, 2023

Ocean circulation and other data from SUBSURFACE FLOATS from the NE Atlantic (limit-40 W) and other locations. Data were collected by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) and other projects from 03 October 1984 to 03 June 1993. SOFAR, RAFOS, and ALACE submerged floats were deployed. Data are self documenting or are in the WHOI floater format and parameters include East-West current components (U), North-South current components (V), water temperature, and water pressure.
