Title: Current meter and other data from FIXED PLATFORMS in the NE Pacific (limit-180) in support of the VENTS program from 22 June 1999 to 02 August 2001 (NODC Accession 0000701)
Abstract: Current meter and other data were collected from FIXED PLATFORMS in the NE Pacific (limit-180) from 22 June 1999 to 02 August 2001. Data were collected by the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) in support of the VENTS program. Data include east-west current components (u), north-south current components (v), current direction, temperature, and pressure. Data were obtained at multiple depths to 1480 meters.
