The Arabian Sea Experiment - Water Temperature Data

The Arabian Sea Experiment, funded by the Office Of Naval Research, took place near the climatological mean axis of the Findlater Jet in the Arabian Sea. A moored array was deployed in order to improve understanding of air-sea interaction in the region, and in particular to investigate the oceanic response to the strong, large-scale atmospheric forcing associated with the summer and winter monsoons. The Upper Ocean Processes Group maintained a surface mooring at the site for one year. The nominal water depth was 4030 m. Water Temperature Data from this experiment include: Location: At 1530NNNN, 6130EEEE Duration: 94/10/16 to 95/10/19 Sample Rate: 15 minutes Variables: Water temperature Instrumentation: All instruments on the list of subsurface instruments measure temperature.
