bathy_ADCP station_plans The locations for the broad-scale stations are defined for all the broad-scale cruises. Each station has a priority (priority 1 is a higher priority than 2, etc.) For more detailed information about the station protocol, see http://globec.whoi.edu/globec-dir/corestations.html.

drifter96 eventlogs Event logs provide an overall summary of the activities during a cruise. A hard copy of the event log is also included in the cruise report. All event logs should include the date, time, and position information for the event being recorded. Eventually, all event logs will be served with both local and gmt time. At this time, not all event logs are available on-line, in digital form. Event logs that are available in text form are available here. eventlogs images

images met_1_hour Dataset:MET 1 hour data from Endeavor cruises
Processed by:R. Payne

This object contains meteorological data from several Endeavor cruises. The data have been reduced to one hour averages.

Processing Notes

  1. Concatenate daily 1 minute files into one file for whole cruise
  2. Edit file for obvious bad data, i.e., missing data, garbage characters, etc.
  3. Run program which reformats data. Output parameters:
    Year day, lat, long, Speed made good, course made good, gyro 1 & 2, Edo speed, Edo indicator, port wind speed, starboard ws, port wind azimuth, starboard waz, air temp, relative humidity, baarometric pressure, sea surface temp @5m & 1m depth, Edo depth, Chirp sonar depth.
  4. Put plots of all parameters on screen and look for obvious single bad points. Edit in basic concatenated file. Except I have not edited depths.
  5. Iterate steps 2-4 until no more obvious bad points.
  6. Run second program which computes true wind speed and direction from speed and course made good, gyros, larger of port or starboard ws and accompanying wind azimuth. Outputs are year day, lat lon, speed and course made good, gyro, relative ws and direction, true ws and direction, air temp, relative humidity, barometric pressure, short- and long-wave radiation,5m and 1m sea surface temps, Edo depth, Chirp sonar depth, Edo speed, Edo indicator. This file is good basic version, transmitted to Warren. Fortran Format:
    (F10.5,1X,F7.4,1X.F8.4,1X,F5.2,1X.F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.2,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.2,1X, F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F6.1,1X,F6.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F6.1,1X, F6.1,1X,F5.2,1X,A1). Form of file name is ENxxxW.DAT where xxx is cruise number.
  7. Check plots of true wind speed and direction to make sure they look ok.
  8. Run vector averaging program which produces 60 minute series. The program uses 60 consecutive records and does not check for missing records. I have not carried depths since hourly averages do not seem useful nor Edo speeds since they seem pretty generally useless. Output parameters are: Year day, lat, long, true wind speed and direction, air temp, relative humidity, barometric pressure, short- and long-wave radiation, sea surface temp @ 5m & 1m. Output format is:
    (F10.5,1X,F7.4,1X,F8.4,1X,F5.2,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F6.1,1X,F6.1,1X, F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X).

This file is good basic version, transmitted to Warren. Fortran Format:
    (F10.5,1X,F7.4,1X.F8.4,1X,F5.2,1X.F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.2,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.2,1X, F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F6.1,1X,F6.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F6.1,1X, F6.1,1X,F5.2,1X,A1). Form of file name is ENxxxW.DAT where xxx is cruise number.
  7. Check plots of true wind speed and direction to make sure they look ok.
  8. Run vector averaging program which produces 60 minute series. The program uses 60 consecutive records and does not check for missing records. I have not carried depths since hourly averages do not seem useful nor Edo speeds since they seem pretty generally useless. Output parameters are: Year day, lat, long, true wind speed and direction, air temp, relative humidity, barometric pressure, short- and long-wave radiation, sea surface temp @ 5m & 1m. Output format is:
    (F10.5,1X,F7.4,1X,F8.4,1X,F5.2,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F6.1,1X,F6.1,1X, F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X,F5.1,1X).
    Form of output name is: ENxxxW60.DAT where xxx is cruise number.

Specific notes:

  1. Data truncated at start of concatenated file until beginning of hour ship leaves dock.

  2. Year day 1 = January 1.
    1996 - Year day computed from Trimble time.

Note:This is the initial attempt at putting these biological sample data on-line. Please provide feedback to the Data Management Office. Once more data are available, access to them will be via the correct subcategories. Thanks.

Modified March 3, 1997: Replace field names species and count with taxon and density_taxon, respectively.

Note: This is the initial attempt at putting these biological sample data on-line. Please provide feedback to the Data Management Office. Once more data are available, access to them will be via the correct subcategories.

In the future, the data will be reorganized to view the net data individually and to show the information about the depth interval for each net as well.

MOCNESS10 patchmodel
 Contributor: G. Flierl         
 dataset:     Patch model

The physics here is a two-dimensional turbulence calculation in a 64x64 psuedospectral model.

Various tracer models (passive or active) are included.

To view the movies, you need mpeg_play. For the individual frames, you need xwud

For the runs with particles, the colored field is the streamfunction. The particles are assumed to attract each other: For each particle, you comput a vector attracting velocity for all the other particles and average it. The attracting velocity depends on the separation as u0*(r-r0)/L*exp(-(r-r0)^2/L^2). L=4 and the domain size is 64*0.3

For the tracer runs, the colored field is the tracer and the contours are the streamfunction. The case with only a numerical filter for stability shows a lot of (I think) spurious structure at small scales. The case with a little mixing looks better.
