Acoustic travel time and bottom pressure data from inverted echo sounders as part of the Southwest Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation project (SAM) from 2011-07-07 to 2016-10-29 (NCEI Accession 0175745)
This dataset contains round trip acoustic travel time and abmient bottom pressure from bottom-mounted instruments spaced zonally along 34.5S in the SW Atlantic east of Uruguay July 2011 to October 2016. The data were collected for the Southwest Atlantic meridional overturning circulation ("SAM") project by the NOAA-Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory. Both the processed/quality-controlled and the raw data files are available. Format is text.
