This dataset comprises the current meter data collected from a transect across the East Australian Current off Evans Head, northern NSW during August 1989-March 1990, as part of a study of ocean transport in the Tasman Sea. There are 8 moorings with 16 current meters represented in this dataset. Parameters typically recorded in current meter data comprise east-west and north-south velocity components, water temperature, pressure, and salinity at a nominal depth for each current meter. The data have been processed and are archived as part of the holdings of the CMR Data Centre in Hobart.

Current meter components data were collected from FIXED PLATFORMS from 09 November 1977 to 20 February 1990. Data were collected by the Maritime Safety Agency; Hydrographic Division (MSA). Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard F015 Current Meter Components format. The F015 format contains time series measurements of ocean currents. These data are obtained from current meter moorings and represent the Eulerian method of current measurement, i.e., the meters are deployed at a fixed point and measure flow past a sensor. Position, bottom depth, sensor depth and meter characteristics are reported for each station. The data record includes values of east-west (u) and north-south (v) current vector components at specified date and time. Current direction is defined as the direction toward which the water is flowing with positive directions east and north. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at 10 - 15 minute time intervals. Water temperature, pressure and conductivity or salinity may also be reported. A text record is available for optional comments.

This dataset comprises the current meter data collected from the ACE Cape Howe Section (NSW/Victoria border) during September 1983-March 1984, as part of the Australian Coastal Experiment (ACE). There are 4 moorings with 10 current meters represented in this dataset. Parameters typically recorded in current meter data comprise east-west and north-south velocity components, water temperature, pressure, and salinity at a nominal depth for each current meter. The data have been processed and are archived as part of the holdings of the CMR Data Centre in Hobart.
