Title: Eastward and northward components of vertical mean velocity collected by dropsonde from a small boat in the Straits of Florida on 2020-01-16 (NCEI Accession 0235236)
Abstract: This dataset contains data from a free-falling dropsonde float making measurements of vertical-mean horizontal velocity taken from a small boat in the Florida Current along 27N on Jan 16, 2020. This data were collected as part of the Western Boundary Time Series (WBTS) project. The WBTS project is funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and is run at the NOAA-Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory. Data are in ASCII format.
