- Abstract:
-
Time-series of acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data
were collected using a downward looking Longranger RDI
ADCP at a single location. This data set was measured during
the MUSE experiment from MBARI's M1 mooring located at
the mouth of Monterey Bay near the axis of the Monterey
Bay Submarine Canyon.
- Purpose: These data were collected for oceanographic research.

- Process_Description:
-
Null or bad values of ADCP data are listed
as -99.99. If the whole profile consists of
bad values, the instrument is either absent or
failing to send valid data. The data is flagged
as being bad if any beam has a correlation value
below 64 or if the percentages good for 3 and
4 beam solutions are less than 25 percent. The complete
data set can be found in a netCDF file included in
the 'original' directory. The netCDF
files can be converted to ASCII using the Matlab
function 'writeadcp3.m' included in the 'mfiles'
directory. The ASCII output stores the U and V
velocities in separate files. Each row of the ASCII
files contain the time and the current velocity of one
component of a single profile. The depths of the center
of each velocity bin are listed in the header of the
data file.
