Purpose:

These current velocity data were determined in support of ongoing mooring and deep sea lander experiments at (GC600)

Data Parameters and Units:

u = Eastward sea water velocity (m/s); v = Northward sea water velocity (m/s); Ensemble #; Date (yyyymmdd); Time (hmmss.ss); N (Latitude, decimal minutes); W (Longitude, decimal minutes)
