Laurence M. Gould Shipboard ADCP data

A list of all cruises with links to vector and contour plots of the velocity data are provided below. Selecting "examine data" will access an image map of the cruise track. Vector and contour plots have been made for selected sections of the cruise track, normally the southbound and northbound Drake Passage crossings, with other tracks dependent on the particular cruise.

Acknowledgments

The collection, processing and dissemination of these data was carried out by the Chereskin Lab at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD with support from the National Science Foundation Office of Polar Programs grant nos. OPP-9816226, ANT-0338103, ANT-0838750, PLR-1341431, PLR-1542902, and OPP-2001646. Eric Firing and Jules Hummon at the University of Hawaii provide critical support for the data acquisition and processing of these ADCP data through the development and maintenance of the UHDAS and CODAS software.
