Title: Navigational, physical and underway data collected aboard the MELVILLE during cruise MGLN03MV in the North Pacific Ocean from 2006-05-16 to 2006-05-29 (NCEI Accession 0155911)
Abstract: This dataset includes navigational, physical and underway data collected aboard the MELVILLE during cruise MGLN03MV in the North Pacific Ocean from 2006-05-16 to 2006-05-29. These data include CURRENT SPEED - EAST/WEST COMPONENT (U), CURRENT SPEED - NORTH/SOUTH COMPONENT (V), LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, course over ground and speed over ground. The instruments used to collect these data include ADCP and GPS. These data were collected by D. Randolph Watts of The University of Rhode Island, and by University of California - San Diego; Scripps Institution of Oceanography as part of Kuroshio Extension System Study (KESS). The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) submitted these data to NCEI as part of the Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program.

A suite of navigation products produced by the Rolling Deck to Repository program is included in this accession, which include one high resolution, one 1 minute resolution, and one low resolution coordinate file. The ADCP data represent the raw data set. Post processed quality assessed data are not available in this accession.
