SEA LEVEL - MEAN and Other Data from FIXED PLATFORM from 1980-09-30 to 1980-11-30 (NCEI Accession 8100083)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 07:26 AM | Dataset Last Updated: February 06, 2023 at 12:00 AM
This dataset includes wave/current observations data from FIXED PLATFORM OF UNITED STATES in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1980-09-30 to 1980-11-30. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Wave/Current Observations (F181) format. The F181 format is designed to support studies made by automated ocean sensoring devices. The format consists of ten record types. Record types A and B describe the basic environmental information to understand the data. Record types C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J are used to report current meter, water level, pressure gauge, wave height, and wave direction, spectra, fourier coefficients, and current meter respectively.
