Long term current measurements along 48° N in the central North Atlantic. TOPOGULF. A joint programme initiated by IFREMER, Brest (France), IFM, Kiel (West Germany). Volume 2 : Currentmeter measurements - Data Report - by The TOPOGULF Group

De 1983 à 1985, la partie courantométrie du projet TOPOGULF s'est déroulée dans l'Atlantique Nord (48° N - 20 à 35° W). L'objectif était de décrire l'influence d'un grand relief sous-marin, la dorsale médio-atlantique, sur les mouvements moyens et turbulents de l'océan. Soixante-douze séries de vitesse et de température d'une durée nominale de 1 an ont été obtenues. Ce rapport fournit pour les données recueillies des enregistrements filtrés passe-bas et les statistiques associées.

From 1983 to 1985 the TOPOGULF current meter project took place along 48° N from 35° to 20° W. The objective of the investigation was to describe the influence of a large topographic feature such as the Mid Atlantic Ridge on the mean and turbulent motion fields. 72 series of velocity and temperature of yearly nominal length have been obtained. The present data report shows the individual low pass filtered data records and the primary statistics.
