2012-10-03 00:00aanderaacurrent_speed, current_u, current_v2Current speed readings from 2m current meter appear too low and erratic; current readings flagged as invalid (2m temperature appears okay).
2012-10-26 13:20ALLALL Recovered by R/V Connecticut.


Notes: Sensors highlighted in red indicate problems with this sensor during deployment. Depth is measured relative to the ocean surface with positive depths indicating depths below the ocean surface. Negative depths are heights above the surface. In the case of doppler current measurements, the depth indicates depth of first measurement:delta-depth:depth of last measurement. For instance, 10:4:106 represents currents measured every 4 meters from 10 meters down to 106 meters (28 depths in all).
