ADCP dataset (RDI WorkHorse 300 kHz @ 1 profile / hour) from INGV/GEOSTAR seafloor platform, ESONET-NOE-LIDO project 2009-2010 - Iberian Margin site (Gulf of Cadiz) EMSO network
Entry ID: moist.emso.iberian_margin.esonet-noe-lido.2009.geostar.adcp.17

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: ADCP velocity profiles were obtained with 3m vertical resolution through a 300 kHz Workhorse ADCP unit mounted in a upward looking configuration on one side of the GEOSTAR station free from any possible obstacle. The record lasted one year with an hourly sampling rate providing current data of water column above the station.

Purpose: ADCP current profiler allowed to monitor the hydrodynamic condition of a water column only 50 m high, because of the lack of big quantity of particle matter necessary to scatter the acoustical signal.
