ARSLOE was sponsored jointly by the Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC) of the US Army Corps of Engineers and the National Ocean Survey (now Service) of NOAA; it was conducted from 6 October to 30 November 1980 in the area off Duck, NC, near the CERC Field Research Facility. The data were collected using modern electronic sensors such as EM current meters, waveriders, wave staffs and pressure gauges. Each series of measurements may include instrument type and characteristics, position, mean sea level, initial time, time span of the data sample and sampling period. Depending on the type of instrument used and data collected, data are reported in eight alternate data records. These contain: 1) EM current meter data (east and north components); 2) Baylor gauge data (water level); 3) pressure gauge data (water pressure); 4) waverider data (wave displacement); 5) wave direction buoy (wave displacement, east and north wave slope components); 6) wave spectra (co- and quadspectra); 7) wave data (angular Fourier coefficients); and 8) three-axis current meter data (east and north components). A text record is available for providing additional documentation. This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0014202 Preview graphic PNG 0014202 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 1999-12-31 publication CURRENT SPEED - EAST/WEST COMPONENT (U) CURRENT SPEED - NORTH/SOUTH COMPONENT (V) HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE SEA LEVEL - MEAN WATER LEVEL WAVE DATA - ANGULAR FOURIER COEFFICIENTS WAVE DATA - CO-SPECTRA WAVE DATA - DISPLACEMENT WAVE DATA - QUAD-SPECTRA WAVE DIRECTION - AVERAGE WAVE DIRECTION - EAST COMPONENT WAVE DIRECTION - NORTH COMPONENT WAVE HEIGHT WAVE PERIOD theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS buoy - moored - waverider current meter pressure gauge instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS current measurements physical theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS US National Oceanographic Data Center dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS North Atlantic Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NODC > National Oceanographic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2026 revision 24 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
