HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE, WATER TEMPERATURE and INSTRUMENT - DEPTH, and other data from CAPE HENLOPEN from 1981-04-10 to 1982-11-01 (NCEI Accession 8500049)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 07:33 AM | Dataset Last Updated: February 10, 2023 at 12:00 AM
This dataset includes pressure gauge data from CAPE HENLOPEN in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1981-04-10 to 1982-11-01. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Pressure Gauge (F017) format. The F017 format contains time series measurements of seawater pressure from anchored or bottom-mounted sensors. Measurements of variations at depth of seawater pressure provide information on tidal and storm flows, ocean circulation, and other phenomena that cause changes in sea surface elevation or slope and that can be detected from their pressure signature. Position, bottom depth, and gauge depth are reported for each station. The data record comprises values of total pressure at specified date and time. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at time intervals of 10-15 minutes. Seawater temperature may also be reported. Comments may be reported in a text record.
