Current measurements and other data from Lagrangian drifters in the Georges Bank from 1995-11-07 to 1996-10-23 (NCEI Accession 9800139)
This dataset includes Lagrangian current measurements and water temperature data, from deployments in 1996 in the Georges Bank, collected by Richard Limeburner, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, as part of the GLOBEC Georges Bank project.
The primary drifter used in this study was the standard WOCE SVP (World Ocean Circulation Experiment Surface Velocity Program) drifter drogued with a 7-m long by 1-m holey sock centered at either 10 or 15 m and tracked by service ARGOS (Sybrandy and Niiler, 1991).

Supplemental Information | Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
