Dataset Information

title: Ten minute Gridded Mooring M2 Observations
Conventions: CF-1.0
summary: These data have been processed from the original instrument deployment netCDF files. Each variable from each file has been gridded to a common ten minute time axes. Temperature and Salinity data are on an irregular depth axis whose points are the nominal deployment depths of the CTD sensors. Original subsurface temperatures outside the range of (2,20) and salinities outside the range of (31,36) have been marked as missing. The ADCP measured sea water velocity data have been gridded to a common 5 m increment depth axis.
