Description 
Summary

The marine current data were collected in view of the deployment of a pipeline in the area offshore Bombay. The moorings were deployed with 1 or 2 current meters. 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 150 current meter days.
