Summary

Abstract

PROCESSED LOWERED ADCP CURRENT VELOCITY DATA

These LADCP data were collected by NOAA/AOML/PhOD during cruise NF0903 of the Coral Reef Ecosystem Research (CRER) project conducted in April 2009 aboard the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster.

Data contained in this file were originally acquired using a single lowered, downlooking 300kHz, RDI ADCP.

These data should be considered preliminary data. For further information, contact: ryan.smith@noaa.gov

These 16 LADCP Data files have an extension of .vel and are provided in one zip file
