      <abstract>Current meter moorings were deployed in the areas of
      northeastern Georges Bank, Northeast Channel, and Scotian Shelf. Mooring
      sites were occupied continuously for the period: October 1993 to May 1997
      and November 1998 to September 1999. The observations were collected by
      Canada's Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO) as a contributing
      partner to GLOBEC. The data are reported as hourly values of temperature,
      salinity, current speed and direction. Except for the data gap (97 - 98),
      some sites and depths have data coverage for the entire
      period.</abstract>
