Current, meteorological, and other data from TAO buoy arrays in the equatorial Pacific Ocean from 23 February 1997 to 10 July 1998 (NCEI Accession 0000617)

Current, meteorological, and other data were collected from TAO Arrays EM4,EM5,CM4,CM5,WM4,WM5 in the equatorial Pacific Ocean from 23 February 1997 to 10 July 1998. Current data contain 5 pairs of zonal and meridional current values from 10m, 25m, 45m, 80m, and 120m. Temperature data include values from 13 depths. Meteorological data include, wind speed, wind direction, air temperature, and relative humidity.
