GoMix I mooring data, northern Gulf of Mexico, 2016-09-18 to 2017-08-18

GoMix is a three-year project with the goal of understanding the mechanisms, spatial inhomogeneity, and temporal intermittency of boundary mixing along the Northern Deepwater Gulf. There are several platforms. This data set concerns measurements obtained with two short moorings of ~75 m height, deployed at (28.4147°N, 89.2298°W), in about 600 m of water and at (28.2776°N, 89.2604°W) in about 825 m of water. These moorings were both equipped with a downward-looking, high-frequency ADCP and high precision temperature sensors. The deeper mooring, deployed for a shorter duration, was additionally equipped with an enhanced Modular Acoustic Velocity Sensor (MAVS) designed for direct estimates of turbulent temperature flux.

GoMix项目是一项为期三年的研究计划，旨在解析墨西哥湾北部深水海域边界混合的作用机制、空间非均质性与时间间歇性。本项目依托多类观测平台，本数据集涵盖部署于两处海域的两台高度约75米的短系泊浮标所获取的观测数据：一处位于(28.4147°N, 89.2298°W)，作业水深约600米；另一处位于(28.2776°N, 89.2604°W)，作业水深约825米。两台浮标均搭载了向下观测的高频声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP）与高精度温度传感器。其中部署时长更短的深水系泊浮标，还额外配备了一款专为直接估算湍流温度通量设计的增强型模块化声学速度传感器（MAVS）。
