Water temperature, conductivity, current velocity, and others taken by moored CTD, ADCP, and acoustic current meters from moorings in the Indian Ocean from 2016-04-10 to 2018-06-10 (NCEI Accession 0210643)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 03:39 AM | Dataset Last Updated: June 04, 2020 at 12:00 AM
This data package is comprised of discrete in-situ measurements of water temperature, conductivity, pressure and calculated salinity taken by CTD and current velocity taken by ADCP and acoustic current meters from the Agulhas System Climate Array (ASCA) sub-surface mooring array, from 2016-04-10 to 2018-06-10. Each file in the set represents a single instrument's complete time series record, along with the nominal instrument depth and mooring latitude/longitude. The data have been calibrated and edited to remove outliers. Data are in NetCDF.
