SOIREE Shipboard ADCP data
Calibrated and quality controlled shipboard ADCP data
continually recorded from a hull mounted ADCP.
Data on the currents within the top 200m of the water column.

There are 64 columns which are as follows:
1: date (YYMMDD)
2: time (HHMM)
3: longitude (decimal degrees)
4: latitude (decimal degrees)
5 - 34: u component (eastward) of ADCP currents in 30 depth bins.
Column 5 is the top bin; column 6 the second bin; etc.
35 - 64: v component (northward) of ADCP currents also in 30 depth bins
Column 35 is the top bin; column 36 the second bin; etc.

The depth bins are each 8m deep, with the top of the shallowest bin being at 27m depth.

Bad data values are marked with "nd"

Instrument: Furuno CI-30 2-axis doppler speed log

Data prepared by Edward Abraham and Philip Wiles (NIWA).
