Title: Vertical-mean horizontal velocity from dropsonde floats in the Florida Current along 27°N from 1994-04-25 to 1999-11-24 (NCEI Accession 0161539)
Abstract: This dataset contains data from a free-falling "dropsonde" float making measurements of vertical-mean horizontal velocity in the Florida Current along 27°N from 1994 to 1999. This data was 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.
