| Description | |
| Summary | Four current meters were moored at depths of 70, 120, 320 and 420 metres on a single chain in the Corsican Channel (43° N, 9.67° E). The chain was anchored to the bottom which was about 450 metres at this point. The data set contains time series of the temperature, conductivity, pressure and the E-W and N-S velocity components of the water masses. The data covers, almost continuously, a period extending from 1985 to 1988 at 30 minute time intervals. |
