| Title: | Current and other data from moored buoys from the A. A. CUNNINGHAM and other platforms in the coastal waters of California as part of the Southern California Bight Experiment from 19 April 1989 to 17 July 1990 (NODC Accession 0000065) |
| Abstract: | Current and other data were collected from moored buoys from the A. A. CUNNINGHAM and other platforms in coastal waters of California from 19 April 1989 to 17 July 1990. Data were collected by the University of Washington as part of the Southern California Bight Experiment. Parameters include current speed, current direction, u component of velocity, v component of velocity, and temperature. Some instruments also include conductivity as indicated by a C in the variable(Variable) column. S indicates speed, rather than the usual u and v; this results from bad compass data. |
