Title: Physical and underway data collected aboard the MELVILLE during cruise MV0906 in the Philippine Sea and South China Sea (Nan Hai) from 2009-04-14 to 2009-05-01 (NODC Accession 0089608)
Abstract: NODC accession 0089608 includes physical and underway data collected aboard the MELVILLE during cruise MV0906 in the Philippine Sea and South China Sea (Nan Hai) from 2009-04-14 to 2009-05-01. These data include CURRENT SPEED - EAST/WEST COMPONENT (U) and CURRENT SPEED - NORTH/SOUTH COMPONENT (V). The instruments used to collect these data include ADCP and GPS. These data were collected by James Mercer of SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY and SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY as part of Philippine Sea Pilot Study/Engineering Test. The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) submitted these data to NODC as part of the NSF sponsored Rolling Deck to Repository (R2R) program. The ADCP data represent the raw and automated processed data set. Post processed quality assessed data are not available in this accession.
