| Country | Italy  |
| Time period | From August to October 1979 |
| Ongoing | No |
| Geographical area | 3 moorings in the Strait of Messina, Italy |
| Observations | |
| Parameters | Horizontal velocity of the water column (currents); Temperature of the water column |
| Instruments | Unknown |
| Description | |
| Summary | The moorings were deployed with 1 current meter. The time series were recorded at sampling interval of 15 minutes. The data are fully quality controlled for gaps, spikes and spurious data. The raw data are averaged over 1 hour time interval and analyzed to produce spectral analysis, tidal component and residual. The data sets are stored as a raw time series for each current meter (1 data cycle of temperature, speed and direction every 15 minutes). The complete data set consists of 90 current meter days. |
