Eastward and northward components of vertical mean velocity collected by dropsonde from small boats in the Straits of Florida from 2017-03-30 to 2017-08-29 (NCEI Accession 0186568)

This dataset contains data from a free-falling dropsonde float making measurements of vertical-mean horizontal velocity taken from small boats in the Florida Current along 27N from 2017-03-30 to 2017-08-29. This data was collected as part of the Western Boundary Time Series (WBTS) project. The WBTS project is funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and is run at the NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory. Data are in ASCII format.
