To measure the internal wave field on the upper continental slope over long time duration (> 1 year), and to estimate the effects of internal waves on the transport of sediment over the slope.
Description
Chief Scientist: George Tate. Mooring Recovery data (navigation) of field activity P-3-96-NC in Northern California from 01/13/1996 to 01/13/1996
Location
Northern California
Summary
Time-series measurements (hourly) of temperature at 12 depths, currents and light transmission at three depths for over one year. Recovered mooring from P1-95-NC.
Info derived
Seasonal changes in the internal temperature field over the slope, with analysis of the internal waves in this region.
